Description
Delightful walk from Oosterlo to Zammel, via Varendonk. Through the Trichelbroek nature reserve and along the banks of the Grote Nete back to the starting point.
During wet periods, there is a risk of muddy paths and flooding.
The route also passes by the Sint-Dimpnakapel. The Sint-Dimpnakapel is located on Sint-Gerebernusstraat in Zammel, a district of Geel. Legend has it that the saints Dimpna and Gerebernus lived in a hut in Zammel for a few months.
Near this hut, a chapel was erected in the mid-17th century. It soon became too small due to the many pilgrims who visited it. Therefore, in 1692, the construction of a larger chapel began, which was extensively renovated and restored in 1780.
