Discover the Duisburg Plateau and the Ijse River between Huldenberg and Loonbeek. Walk past the Huldenberg castle grounds. In the castle’s greenhouses, gardener Felix Sohie grew the first true greenhouse grapes. A bronze commemorative plaque at the entrance gate honors this visionary horticulturist. From the western slope of the IJse Valley, you’ll enjoy a stunning panoramic view. Head into the Margijs Forest, where the bandit leader Charlepoeng was killed by French soldiers in 1799.
