About the event
The Herzebösch centre is based in a multipurpose hall on the edge of Elsenborn, next to the military training ground, on an open plateau where snow lies well. Five loops of 2, 4, 5, 9 and 14 km suit families and keen skiers alike, and skating is possible on all of them. The centre rents 800 pairs of classic skis but no skating skis. A sledging run, a café-restaurant, showers and a heated room complete the picture. Tip: if you bring your own skis, the €6 vignette covers parking and a drink; the car park holds about 150 cars.
