Length: 10.8 km. A varied horse riding route over paved and partly unpaved paths, through the Houtsberg woodland and along the valuable De Banen nature area.

This route takes you through a diverse landscape between Weert and Nederweert. You'll ride through the Houtsberg woods and along the edge of De Banen and Sarsven, fen areas with a rich history of peat extraction and a unique wetland flora that today forms part of the Natura 2000 network. Along the way you'll pass quiet woodland trails, open meadows and water features — a lovely mix of forest and wetland scenery packed into a relatively short distance.
