Your route starts on the nice terrace of Bie de Veldwachter in Amstenrade. First you drive to the Brunssumerheide. This is the only large heathland area in South Limburg. In addition to heathlands, you will also see forests and fens. With a bit of luck you will hear the 'cowbells' ringing, a sign that the shepherd with his flock of sheep is nearby. Be sure to get off at the visitor center, because you can enjoy a beautiful view of the natural beauty there. The Schutterspark was designed between 1920 and 1940. The park is partly located on the slope of a hill and partly in the valley of the Rode Beek. The northern part of the park consists of a natural forest and heathland. You cycle back via the beautiful Geleenbeek valley near Schinnen.
