Wijboschbroek is a Dutch nature reserve, located north of Schijndel. It is 248 ha in size and will be expanded to 550 ha by purchasing enclaves. A large part of the area is managed by Staatsbosbeheer.[1] To the south, the area changes into De Smaldonken and the basin of Wijbosch, while to the north it is bordered by the Zuid-Willemsvaart.

The Wijboschbroek originated as the reclamation of the original polder landscape east of the hamlet of Wijbosch. It consisted of an open swampy wetland that connected seamlessly with the Veghels Broek (De Dubbelen and Grootdonk in Veghel. The Biezenloop flows through the Wijboschbroek, a tributary of the Aa. The Wijboschbroek was an overflow area for both rivers.

Until the eighteenth century, Wijboschbroek belonged to the municipal grounds of Wijbosch and Schijndel. Residents of these villages were allowed to use the area for grazing livestock.
