After leaving the city, the Rijksweg (N278) bends south away from the original route. At the place where hotel-restaurant In den Hoof is now, formerly Bogman, there was a tram stop Bogman at that time. Beyond this tram stop, the route followed the Weg van Heer to Bemelen and further on the Parallelweg. Since the gradient was not allowed to exceed two percent, the Road from Heer to Bemelen runs over a track body and the Parallelweg through an excavation. Both still very recognizable in the landscape. A track body is a road construction term, it is a dike or embankment built with sand under a railway or road so that it runs elevated through the landscape. An excavation is the opposite, this is a dug trench through which the railway track or road is placed below ground level. The next tram stop is at the end of Parallelweg. The route continues there over the Zwarteweg, which crosses the track body of the former route. The hike follows a path slightly east of this road with a beautiful view of the track body, after which the Zwarteweg is followed. At the end of the Zwarteweg you can still see the remains of a loading and unloading platform. The route goes under the viaduct at the Rijksweg (N278) and then curves to the current Rijksweg and from there follows the current Rijksweg to Margraten. From the route to Margraten, the terminus of this section is no longer visible in the landscape. As further sights, the walking tour passes two quarries, the Koeberg quarry and the Juliana quarry. The tram travelers will not have seen much of these two scenically located quarries. The exploitation of the quarries started in 1935 and passenger transport between Maastricht and Vaals ended in 1936. The walking tour also passes Huis Blankenberg, a castle located on the Blankenberg in the hamlet of Honthem and the American Military Cemetery near Margraten.
