Hiking

Here you are at the intersection of the Heggebossenweg and the paths to nature reserves Pinnekenswijer and Houterenberg, as well as to the fishpond. At the intersection there is another information board with a map, probably therefore a highlight. The wheelchair path (no bicycles) also makes a bend here.
