The heathland in Hoge Kempen National Park stretches out like a colorful carpet of purple and pink hues, especially in summer when the heather is in bloom. Rolling hills, sandy paths, and scattered pines create a peaceful, open space that contrasts with the surrounding forests. The area not only offers stunning views but is also home to numerous species of birds, butterflies, and small mammals, making it a perfect spot for hiking, nature photography, and experiencing the typical Kempen countryside.
