Vuursteenafzetting Zevenwegen

Epenerbaan 1
Vaals
Near the Zevenwegen parking lot (where indeed seven roads converge), hikers will find a geological treasure. Without this mention, hikers would probably have passed this radius of this flint deposit, which was formed about 70 million years ago when present-day South Limburg was still submerged under the Cretaceous Sea. At this place the chalk (the marl) has completely dissolved and the flint remained. Flint is a rock hard rock from which Stone Age people made arrowheads and axes.

Want to know more about geological treasures? VVV Zuid-Limburg has published a walking map with the name 'Geological treasures in the Geuldal'. This is available at the Tourist Information Offices.
