Hiking

The circular walk of almost 15 kilometers over the Mookerheide in Limburg is varied and hilly. You follow the winding paths through the rolling landscape, which lead you to the most beautiful viewpoints every time.

The route immediately starts well with a beautiful path that winds around Sint-Jansberg, with babbling…

Forest path beside the stream at Sint-Jansberg

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A beautiful path on the edge of the forest. A small stream runs next to the path. When it rains a lot, the path is still passable, but in some parts it is soggy.

Glacial Erratic Boulders

Highlight • Natural Monument

These boulders of granite are a remnant of the glacial ice that reached this region in the last ice age: this 'creeping' ice brought these stones to the Netherlands from southern Sweden.

Fantastic area to walk and varied. You walk through the forest and the fantastic heath. Area is very hilly so it is often uphill and downhill.

August 8, 2025, De Mookerheide in bloei — Limburg op zijn mooist

Took a quick afternoon walk in the area. A lovely route now that the heather is in bloom, but also with some challenging hills.

Beautiful weather and a beautiful route! Today it was really spring, including lambs and blossom trees. I actually planned to go for a walk at Berg en Dal, but estimated that it would be busy there today. So it became a round from Mook-Molenhoek station. There you walk directly into a beautiful nature reserve with Scottish highlanders and views. And yet relatively quiet. Komoot, Garmin and Strava differ in opinion about the number of altimeters, somewhere between 250 and 320. There were tough climbs in between. In retrospect maybe a little too spicy because of foot complaints. But it was worth it :). Also worth repeating is a break at Herberg Restaurant t Zwaantje. Wide selection of flans, a clear indication that you are in Limburg.

A few Dutch meters of altitude bathed in light green... Sunday afternoon and sun and enjoying all the senses. Beautiful, varied tour through lots of nature. That felt really good 🤗

And another dip!!! It was a lovely 29 degrees outside, so it was very welcome.

Sometimes there are walks where everything is right. A fantastic environment, ideal walking weather. That was the feeling I had today during the Plasmolen - Milsbeek stage. The heath is in bloom again and I was very happy that I was able to walk this stage in August 💜.

Today we did a nice winter hike in the neighboring country 🇳🇱. From Plasmolen we went through beautiful, sometimes hilly forest and heathland.
