Icon description route Description

Parking: At the spacious Terhills parking, Nationaal Parklaan in Dilsen-Stokkem.

Signage: Virtual nodes, so GPS or NodeMapp app.

Beautiful walk with stunning pieces of nature. First, about 700 meters over asphalt along the ‘Kleine plas’, then mostly paved gravel and forest paths. Soon, the headframes of the Eisden coal mine come into view. Then, you walk past the Ecotron site, where climate change simulations are conducted.

Further on, it leads to the ‘Grote plas’ with its new attraction “walking/cycling on water,” beautifully created and certainly an added value for this region. At the end, you walk through Resort Terhills.

We have kept the walk as flat as possible. Here and there, you need to go slightly uphill and once take a steep staircase.

Rest benches: e.g. at 1/2.5/4.4/5.7/6.8 and 7.6 km.

Attractions: Headframes / Ecotron / Walking on water.

Catering: Terland Restaurant (Resort Terhills)

Friday, March 7, 2025 by G.V.We walked this route on Wednesday 05/03/2025. We think it would be better to walk it in the opposite direction. When we arrived at the Terhills resort we had to count on a guest of the resort who had a badge to enter the resort, without a badge you cannot open the entrance gate to the resort.
