    Hiking

    More specifically, you're in the Bergerbos. This is the northern part of the vast northern section of De Maasduinen National Park, along with the slightly lower-lying Bleijenbeek Estate, surrounding the ruins of Bleijenbeek Castle (which you can see).

    Just like in the rest of the park, Bergerbos features dunes, forests, heathland, fens, and more. Among the fens are the Quin and Zevenboomsven fen complexes. A popular spot is the 12.5-meter-high observation tower in the middle of the heathland. A fire tower once stood on the same site.

    In the Bleijenbeek Estate, you'll definitely want to see the Duvelskuul (Devil's Cave).
