The Oude Buisse Heide is a beautiful area for walking, quiet and great chance to spot deer. You may recognize the landscapes in the paintings by Vincent van Gogh, who lived in Zundert.

The Oude Buisse Heide is a nature reserve and estate in the municipality of Zundert in the village of Achtmaal of over 200 ha. In 1945 it was donated by Henriette Roland Holst to the Vereniging Natuurmonumenten

The area consists of forest, heathland and fens. In wet places you can find plants such as sundew and bog myrtle. The Buisse Hoeve, a long-façade farm from 1809, is a national monument. On the east side, the Oude Buisse Heide connects to the over 100 ha large nature reserve Wallsteijn, also owned by Natuurmonumenten.

There is a blue walking route of 12 km and a red one of 5 km.

In 1945, writer and politician Henriette Roland Holst (1869-1952) donated this special nature reserve to Natuurmonumenten. The owner spent many summers here with her husband, visual artist Rik Roland Holst, at the Angora Hoeve (Buisse Hoeve).

In the Herenkamer of the adjacent farm they received celebrities such as architect Hendrik Berlage, painter Charley Toorop and poet Herman Gorter. The Oude Buisse Heide was a source of inspiration for the Roland Holst couple.
