This hike takes you from Drieslinter to Neerlinter and back, through the marshy trails of the Gete Valley. You’ll arrive at the Grote Gekte camping and picnic area, where the Houten Reus observation tower rises ten meters above the landscape. The Golden Geet takes you across the Gete on a wobbly bridge. You’ll come face to face with the Getedraak—a climbing structure—and walk through the Doysbroek nature reserve. A few historic buildings, such as the Geensmolen and Neerlinter Castle, round out the walk perfectly.
