The Line path

(9.9 km)

Discover the Liniepad: a walking route that takes you along the southernmost forts of the Hollandse Waterlinies. Experience this Unesco World Heritage Site! Walk through an ancient fortified town, see the defenses and also enjoy the beautiful nature.

The Liniepad is a walking route that starts at the Papsluis lock and ends in the fortified town of Woudrichem. Along the way you will encounter the southernmost forts of the Dutch Waterline (Unesco World Heritage). They are owned by Brabants Landschap. Bakkerskil and Altena have a recreational function. But you also encounter locks and mills and walk through beautiful natural areas and a new estate. The restored casemates have been given a special function as bird-watching huts or winter quarters for bats.
