The Noordal is a 94-hectare nature reserve located in the Noordal valley west of Noorbeek and crossed by the Noor stream. The area is owned by the Dutch Society for Nature Conservation (Vereniging Natuurmonumenten) and is adjacent to the Belgian nature reserve Altembroek.

The area consists of four sections: Wolfsberg, Bergenhuizen, Noorbeemden, and Matzedelle. These include wet meadows, swamp forest, dry slopes, ponds, and standard orchards. All of this is integrated into a small-scale cultural landscape. There are ditches and sunken roads.

Hiking

Beautiful views over the earlier parts of the Noor valley with a little stream in it. (The part upstream of Noorbeek is a dry valley.)
