On The Hiking Trail (Pt. 1): THE RUNE TREASURE
By HikingOn | April 18, 2009
I go hiking in the dense forest of the Putberg, here in the South of the Netherlands, where once the Cretacious Sea was and Romans dug for stones. I almost made a fatal fall, yet it was definitely worth it, because… it made me discover a real TREASURE! An unbelievable story! Note: this video was entirely filmed with my Nokia phone cam which only records in 177×144 res. So it is blown up automatically, losing quality. Alas! Soundtrack: Robin of the Wood, Clannad – Ancient Forest & Battles …

thank you very much, Joyce, all the way from China! My next episodes filmed with a camcorder are much better though even!
But I am glad I inspired you somehow. Have fun here!

Thank you, I guess I used the Putberg as a scene for my videos, over 15 times.
They cut all the trees and bushes near the quarry.. and they are making a road to a house needs to be built, at the forest edge.
I am not sure I like that a lot!

Aaah thank you for clearing that, I was wondering all the time. Yeah they should leave the Putberg as it is, I don’t live far from it, only a 10-15 minute walk from the edge of Welten.
I like the small water stream as well, and all the steep paths. I filmed squirrels there in autumn and it’s an adventure to make it to the top of the quarry, by the path to the left.
I only succeeded once, it is quite dangerous underneath the top, risk of slipping down.
