Hiking

Deep in the green belt of the Wurmtal, just south of Herzogenrath, a quiet forest path winds alongside the gently meandering Wurm River. The path leads through a landscape where nature and history intertwine: ancient forest edges, slopes thick with fern thickets, and clearings where sunlight breaks through the treetops, illuminating the moss. The Wurm itself always murmurs softly in the background, amidst rippling plants and rocky outcrops that recall the valley's mining past.
