Ten Haagdoorn is a unique nature reserve of 800 hectares with heathland, inland dunes, ponds and fens.
From mid-August to mid-September, Ten Haagdoorn surprises and amazes in his purple outfit. Thanks to more than 300 diligently grazing sheep, the heathland splendor is preserved.

The Ten Haagdoorn nature reserve, which is approximately 360 ha in size, contains heathland, forests, and drifting sands and is managed by the Agency for Nature and Forests. Tenhaagdoornheide is located on the Kempens Plateau and its height exceeds 75 meters. Here is the source area of the Laambeek and the Huttebeek. A marshy area formed there, while in the past, with the help of ditches, dikes and locks, the water was used to irrigate some hayfields. Even today, the spotted orchid and the common snipe can be found here. Wikipedia: nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenhaagdoornheide
