    The Brunssummerheide is a 580-hectare heath area with shrub heaths, small raised moor-like vegetation units, pine forests, swamp forests, lakes and open sandy areas.

        The Brunssummerheide is a hilly heathland with a spring and marsh area, sandy areas, small lakes, deciduous and pine forests, crossed by many hiking, horse riding and cycling routes.
        While the actual Brunssummerheide is about 600 hectares in size, the name is mostly used for an 1800 hectare area, which also includes the Schieversheide.


        A popular starting point (with parking) for hikes and bike rides in the Brunssummerheide is the visitor center in the western part of the Brunssummerheide.
        You can reach it by turning off the Heerenweg, which runs from Heerlen along the heath to Brunssum, onto the Schaapskooiweg.
        Bezoekerscentrum Brunssummerheide
        Schaapskooiweg 99
        6414 EL Heerlen
        In this visitor center there is a lot of information, a pancake restaurant with a large terrace and a wide view. Here you can also buy a hiking map of the heath for €6.95. There is also an information board with the hiking and cycling routes.


        I would particularly like to recommend the source area (Dutch: Brongebiet) of the Rode Beek (Rodebach) and the sandy area (Dutch: zandvlakte) right next to it. The source area is equally popular with children and dogs for swimming.
