The Gulp valley.
From the village you walk up through an open landscape to the Rood forest. You go a bit through this beautiful beech forest in the direction of De Plank. A fun fact for enthusiasts, when you leave the forest you can get a traditional ice cream from the vending machine at 't Voerboertje. Via the Plank you walk into the Netherlands to get to the beautiful river Gulp. At the bridge across the river is a nice picnic bench. You cross the river and begin the climb from the slope forest to the Teuvenderberg, along the way you have beautiful views of the valley. Via the Beusdal forest you descend to the castle of Sinnich, which is not accessible to the public. Along the edge of the forest you walk further in the direction of Teuven.
