Icon description route Description

On this beautiful circular walk, one heads towards the Grote Nete to walk a bit along the shore and then return.

One also passes the Kruiskensberg chapel. This chapel has a story just like other chapels. "Kruiskensberg is a pilgrimage site in Nijlen. An old text recounts that a very sick shepherd drank from a spring around 1260 and was suddenly healed. When this became known, a wooden cross was erected and pilgrims flocked to the site. In the 17th century, five wells were dug as a symbol of the five wounds of Christ. Last century, these wells were built in stone, a chapel was erected, and Lord Florent le Grelle, the lord of the Rameyenhof castle, donated a large iron cross. The major pilgrimage day is Good Friday, when believers still come to do the Way of the Cross from 7 to 12."
