Icon description route Description

A beautiful and varied hiking tour.

The names Kampheide and Ravelskamp refer to the nearby NATO airfield, where nowadays only gliders take off. The route leads through a forested area in Ravels, also known as the Pier village. It is part of one of the quietest regions that the Kempen has to offer. Along the way, we pass country roads, small lakes, and even a prehistoric burial mound.

Did you know that Ravelskamp played an important role in the formation of Belgium? At the time of King William II of the Netherlands, up to 10,000 soldiers were stationed here.
