Discover the history and natural beauty of Grenspark KempenBroek on the 'Roman Bridge East' walking route in Tungelroy (municipality of Weert). Tungelroy, situated in this official UNESCO Biosphere Reserve on the border of Dutch and Belgian Limburg, between Weert and Maaseik, offers a unique combination of cultural history and unspoiled nature. The UNESCO designation highlights the area's importance for preserving natural resources and promoting sustainability.
The absolute highlight of this tour, the reconstructed Roman bridge, is located just steps from the starting point, making it the perfect start to your hike. Experts consider this the first discovery of such a bridge from the beginning of our era in the Netherlands. This remarkable find inspired archaeologists and the Tungelroy village council to reconstruct the bridge, allowing you to literally walk across history.
After crossing the reconstructed bridge, you can continue the route in two directions. A shorter version of the route is available for free download via the button
