Description
This route largely follows the trail of the Landscape Walk Cicindria from Wandelen in Limburg. I chose to start at Brewery Kerkom, an ideal place to quench your thirst after the walk. Be sure to check the opening hours on brouwerijkerkom.be first.
You follow the brown approach route for about half a kilometer, then you follow the orange signage. In the month of April, this landscape is transformed into a sea of blossoms. You walk for a while along the Cicindria, a small stream that cuts through this beautiful landscape.
Along the way, you regularly encounter information boards that teach you some fun facts about the area. For example, there is the story of two notorious Bokkenrijders who were active in the 18th century in Haspengouw, Kempen, and Maasland. Or the strong link of this region to Roman times. You walk along Straeten, a reference to a Roman road that connected Cologne with Boulogne. Highly recommended!
