Parking: Municipal Square Lummen.

Signage: GPS or NodeMapp app.

You mainly walk through the forests of the Willekensberg. Via the Willekensberg, you cross the E314 bridge to the 1000-year-old oak, its son (400 years), and grandson. After the Millenniumbos, there is initially a strip of asphalt, after which you walk back over the Willekensberg.

After crossing the E314 again, turn right back into the woods until you reach the Dikke Eikstraat again. Go straight into the meadow here, and after 100 m turn right. After the narrow passage, go left through the iron gate (it seems like a private piece, but it is not). This brings you to the O.L.V. beech, which was voted the most beautiful tree in Flanders in 2018.

Rest benches: among others at 3.2/3.5 and 7.2 km.

Attractions: 1000-year-old oak / O.L.V. beech.
