The symbol of the ‘Station As’ entrance gate is the wheel. It refers to the wheels of the trains and the wheels of the thousands of cyclists who pass by. This gate is an ideal point of departure to discover nature and to experience what the mines were like – on foot, by bike, or by train. Take the nostalgic train from the listed station site for a trip through the atmosphere of yore. The train runs literally between nature and the mining past. There is a miniature train for toddlers that runs through the Driebakenbos and brings you along the 31-metre high watchtower. The trains run on a fixed schedule and by reservation. So you can hire a private train and even put together an arrangement yourself. Original accommodation is available in an authentic night train from 1951.
