Hiking
The steam tram Zwarte Jean once transported passengers and goods through the Dijleland. Now he is retired, but certainly not forgotten. The former tram bed now functions as a walking path. This way your feet stay dry. During your walk you can still find remains of the old tram line and you will get a piece of history of this region.

Hiking
The former Zwarte Jean tram line crosses the Doode Bemde nature reserve. Now a pleasant, natural arched walking path, which keeps your feet dry thanks to the raised bed and 2 bridges.

Hiking
take a moment to pause on this bridge. Explore the memorial stone next to it and try to spot some frogs or other wildlife from the higher ground. Also memorise the view during the different seasons. It is wild how the landscape changes.
