Time for action!

Ready for your daily dose of adventure? Treat dad to these action-packed activities for that Father’s Day adrenaline rush!

Cruise along the old Meuse in the StilSloep, a silent electric boat, and spot birds, Galloway cattle, wild Konik horses and maybe even some beavers – no boating license required.

Challenge dad and the rest of the family to a trail hike full of natural obstacles on the Barefoot Path. Feel the texture of the grass, the roughness of the rocks and the invigorating sensation of water underneath your feet as you experience a unique connection with nature.

More of a daredevil? Stop by the Terhills Cablepark for some water-skiing and wakeboarding on one of the Terhills National Park lakes. Brace yourself for an action-packed adrenaline-pumping ride as you tear across the water.
