Hiking
We are on the edge of the Landschotse Heide, a Natura 2000 area known for its five iconic fens: Keienhurk, Berkven, Wit Holland Ven, Scherpven, and Kromven. Before you lies the Berkven – a mirror of the rugged nature here. How you find it? That is a surprise every time. Sometimes the water glitters full of life, with swarms of birds and dragonflies, other times it is bone dry and time seems to stand still. Two photos, taken from the same spot, show this contrast sharply.
