Hiking

The source area and the upper stream of the Herk and the Herkebeek are located in 'Droog Haspengouw', more specifically in the territory of the municipalities of Heers, Borgloon, Sint-Truiden, Tongeren and Gingelom. The landscape on the plateaus and flanks mostly consists of fields. Remnants of grasslands and swamps are still scattered along the watercourses.

Hiking

Beautiful nature corner with deciduous forest. Old willows, lots of poplar in the trunk, hawthorn hedges and oaks, of which you walk past a very old specimen.
