This short walking route in the municipality of Landgraaf takes you from Waubach to the German border at Rimburg. Anyone who walks through Rimburg soon forgets the time and their busy lives. The old village owes its name to Rimburg Castle, situated just across the German border. However, during this route you will stay in the Netherlands, where you will encounter De Watertoren campsite and the Ipomal gallery. You start off from De Watertoren campsite, where you can also get a cup of coffee and park your car. The route is signposted by red posts.

The Water Tower is an iconic feature in Parkstad. You just have to see it up close!
