The rusty brown colored water looks strange, but is actually very pure water. The rusty brown color is because this stream is fed by water that comes up from the deep layers of the Peelrand Fault, which has a very high iron content.

The Esperloop is a small river in the municipality of Gemert-Bakel that originates from the Snelle Loop and later flows back into it. The length of the Esperloop is about eight km.

This walk follows the Esperloop, a picturesque stream that winds its way through the Brabant landscape near Beek en Donk. The Esperloop is a tributary of the Aa River and is fed by springwater, keeping the water clear and vibrant. Along the banks, you'll find a small-scale and varied landscape with hedgerows, meadows, and old tree-lined avenues that create a secluded and intimate atmosphere.

The area is known for its rich flora and fauna: the stream itself is home to small fish and insects, while butterflies, dragonflies, and songbirds can be seen in the surrounding grasslands and forest edges. In spring and summer, the banks often turn a beautiful green, and countless wild plants bloom.

The route combines the tranquility of the stream valleys with beautiful views of open fields and farms. Its small scale gives this landscape a genuine and unspoiled feel, as if time passes more slowly here.
