7 Summits Wilhelminaberg-wandelroute

7 Summits Wilhelminaberg-wandelroute
This route is part of the 7 Summits , the seven steepest mountain peaks in South Limburg. It concerns a circular walk of 5.5 kilometers with a maximum height of 225 meters.
The Wilhelminaberg is an artificial hill in the municipality of Landgraaf. The hill originated as a slag heap of the Wilhelmina State Mine and was transformed into a recreational area in the 1970s.
From the top, on a clear day, you can see the Claus power station at Roermond, the slag heaps at Genk in Belgium, the Halden in Germany and the lignite power station at Würselen.
And to the south you have a view to where the mountains continue: the Eifel, the High Fens with the highest point in Belgium and the Vaalserberg. The starting point of the walking route is the parking lot at the Strijthagermolen.
