Tips

May 25, 2023

The slope you find here consists of two parts: the lower, more gradually rising, and the upper steep part that bears the name "the land of Zuyl".

Just as in the lower restored wet valley soils (haylands), you will find many typical lime plants here where grazers are used to prevent the typical fast growers that would quickly overgrow these lime plants, such as nettle and cleavage, from doing so. Here you will also find orchids, among other things.

A walking path through the meadow takes you via the slope - from where you have beautiful views of Gelinden - to the top of the hill and then into a piece of forest and finally reach the plateau via a staircase. See also: komoot.com/nl-nl/highlight/5739455
