The tower is easy to climb and the panorama at the top is definitely worth it! From this vantage point you can see heathland, sparse grasslands, fens and forest. The presence of no less than three types of heather - common heather, common heather and red heather - is special.

Hiking

From the Heidetoren you can enjoy the panoramic view of the domain and the many bird species. The information board on the tower shows a simulation from 1945 to today.
