If you follow the beautiful short (audio) walk with the story about the end of the county of Loon after the destruction of the castle that stood here and the beautiful flora of the forest, this is, as it were, "the exit" from the forest. On the other side, the "entrance" you will find information boards, a bench and a welcome with the "flag" of the county of Loon.

Hiking

Nicely maintained forest. Here are the remains of a medieval castle from the 14th century, which are no longer visible. You walk on the circular first rampart.
