Family walk: on a dragon expedition

Who is this a real getaway for?

This walk is really something for families who fancy going on an adventure together. The story of the dragon makes it extra fun for children, while you enjoy the beautiful countryside around Beesel. Getting outside, walking together, discovering and seeing plenty to chat about along the way: that's what makes this route so nice.

When will you visit?

On a crisp spring day, a sunny afternoon or just when you feel like getting out and about: this walk is actually always convenient. After wet weather, it is smart to be mindful of muddy stretches, so be sure to put on sturdy shoes. This makes it even more fun for children.

What to expect.

The Family Walk on Dragon Expedition takes you through the beautiful landscape around Beesel. You walk along varied paths, past meadows, open fields and forest edges. Along the way, the story of Saint George and the dragon suddenly becomes very tangible, because with a little imagination, the dragon could just be hiding here somewhere. That makes this route not only beautiful, but also exciting for young sleuths.

During the walk, there is plenty to see. With a bit of luck, you will spot animals like badgers, wood bats or even bats along the way. This gives the route that little bit extra and makes it not only fun, but also surprisingly educational. Count on a walk of about one and a half to two hours, depending on how many breaks you take along the way to look around, play or pause at a mysterious spot.

Our tip for your visit

Make it a little adventure and let children search for the dragon's best hiding place on their own along the way. Chances are that a lot will suddenly be pointed to bushes, forest edges and exciting nooks and crannies along the path. Then the story really comes alive along the way.
