Near Nieuw-Dordrecht you can take a beautiful walk of about six kilometers through the Oosterbos. The forest looks like an unspoilt nature reserve, but appearances are deceiving... What is now the Oosterbos was a bare peat swamp a century ago. The Klazienaveen company initially started the peat planting enthusiastically, but the venture turned out to be a major failure. Discover the treacherous beauty of the Oosterbos for yourself during this special walk through a former peat area!
