Hiking
The path runs over the old Turnhout – Tilburg train bed.
In the 19th century, the Bels Lijntje, an iron railway connection of 31 km, thundered here.
In 1973, the last official train ran over this railway line.
Be aware that in some parts you have to share the narrow path with walkers and cyclists who are going in one direction or another. Courtesy is appropriate here.
