You will hike with us in the High Fens, the oldest and largest nature reserve of Belgium (also popularly known as the ‘Hautes Fagnes’ and ‘Hoge Venen’). The High Fens is a hiker’s paradise. It is beautiful throughout the year, especially in the winters. The area is characterized by a vast natural diversity consisting of fens, forests, meadows, rivers and little waterfalls. The trail will take you through an adventurous wooden plank path that passes through the varied landscapes of this region. You will be hiking through one of the most beautiful parts of Belgium before boarding the bus to head towards the medieval town of Monschau in Germany. Largely unchanged for over 300 years, this charming town with narrow alleys, cobblestone streets and picturesque half-timbered houses is sure to impress you. We will spend some time exploring this town before our return journey.
Length of the hike: 14km
Pick-up points:

Hi, any chance you will consider having pick-up points in Antwerp or Gent?
Thanks
Hi Daisy,
Unfortunately we don’t have a pickup point in Antwerp or Ghent for High Fens and Monshau trip. Sorry for the inconvenience.
