The Diersfordt Forest is reminiscent of the Maasduinen. Sandy soil with heather and pine forests as well as swampy areas are characteristic. What is particularly eye-catching is the dense fern growth in the undergrowth, which conveys primeval feelings. It's a shame that the military claims demarcated areas. The forest with its adjacent quarry ponds and Diersford Castle is definitely worth a trip.
