Hiking

The village pigs of Ekehaar are there for several reasons. They help in the fight against the proliferating Japanese Knotweed, they eat leftover food from the inhabitants of Ekehaar and the surrounding area and they have a social function. They are of the Bonte Bentheimer breed, known for their friendly nature.

Hiking

Despite the fact that it smells very bad, it is nice to have a look.
