Description

Come out for a scenic day of hiking in the Kempen-Broek National Park in Belgium’s stunning northeast!

Join one of our local certified guides for a day of discovery in which we will hike through the park, enjoying the wildlife, getting some great views and learning a bit about the region’s storied past.

Just 26 years ago the Eisden coal mine was in full operation, but you would never guess that today as we keep our eyes peeled for a rare species of butterfly that has since returned to area.

We will also take advantage of some of the coal mine’s byproducts, climbing to the top of several mining-stone hills and receiving the fantastic views over Flanders.

There is also the 12-meter-tall shaft tower, which we have the option of climbing to get another great view of the park. As we go, we will learn a bit about the history of the mine that was integral in shaping this region.

However, the main highlight of the day will be hiking any of the five trails located in the ‘Connecterra’. These trails will wind through the thick deciduous forests, around lakes, over streams and take us to several gorgeous vistas.

So what are you waiting for? Book now and get ready for a fun and informative day of hiking through the stunningly beautiful Kempen-Broek National Park!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
