Hiking
This circular hiking trail begins at the Hompe windmill, which has been used as a grain and oil mill since 1722 and leads around the Molenplas (Mill Lake). Two-thousand-year-old trees, recovered during gravel mining, now stand here as prehistoric monuments. A rich birdlife and plants typical of wetlands offer a very special natural experience. Free-roaming Galloway cattle and a herd of Konik horses graze the area. A dam made of boulders serves as stepping stones between two lakes (there is also a bypass if the water level is too high).

A beautiful landscape with lots of animals roaming freely.
This former gravel mining area is beautifully landscaped.
