From Hoeve De Gastmolen in Vaals we offer you a weekend trail fun with our new night trail on Saturday evening. On Sunday you can choose from 3 distances including the Schneeberg, one of the 7 Summits of the Dutch Mountain Trail.
The Schneeberg or Snow Mountain is a wooded hill on German territory near Aachen north of Vaals. The Schneeberg owes its name to the chalk soil which gives a strikingly light (white) color in the summer compared to the surrounding soils. The hill is part of the German part of the Plateau of Bocholtz, of the Vaalser Hügelland and has a height of 257 meters above NAP.
