In the middle of Boswachterij Odoorn there is an open heathland that was created after a heavy storm in 1972. It was then decided not to create a new forest, but to fence it off and allow sheep to graze there to keep it short.

It consists of a 25-ton boulder (from Brittany) with a round hole in the middle that gives a special light effect.
