Hiking
A wonderful and very diverse hiking area.
Plenty of forest, heathland, and beautiful, clear lakes.
The well-designed viewpoints are also very well-chosen for observing the local birdlife.
Binoculars are, of course, useful for this purpose and should be brought along.
A real highlight are the mighty and leisurely Scottish cattle that graze stoically here in the middle of the forest and on the hiking trails.
Nevertheless, you should keep a sufficient distance between yourself and the animals.

Beautiful fen at Huis ter Heide.
Here you can enjoy a lovely walk, enjoy the view and even encounter Scottish highlanders.

Hiking
At the Leikeven there are benches where you can sit and enjoy the nature around you and sometimes even the Scottish highlanders as they quietly graze around the fen.
There is also a slightly higher vantage point where you have a better overview of the fen.
