スティッペルバーグのおすすめランニングルート

In the heart of the Stippelberg nature reserve, near Milheeze, stands the De Stip lookout tower. This wooden tower is named after the small hills in the landscape – the so-called stippels – from which the entire area takes its name. From the top of the tower, you have a magnificent panoramic view of the vast forests, heathlands, and ancient drifting sands that make this area so unique. The climb up is definitely worth it: you see just how large and diverse the Stippelberg truly is. In the distance, a landscape unfolds with straight avenues of pine trees, clearings where deer graze, and tranquil heathlands that turn a beautiful purple in summer. In autumn, you see the warm hues of oak and beech trees, while in winter the view is clear and tranquil. The Stippelberg has a rich history: once a sand drift, later planted for mining, and now developed into a valuable nature reserve teeming with life. During your walk to the tower, you can discover badger dens, ancient oak avenues, and fens. Birds of prey like the buzzard and hawk are often seen above the open spaces. The De Stip Observation Tower is therefore not only a highlight, literally but also figuratively: it offers a glimpse into the past and future of this unique Brabant nature reserve.

Beautiful nature reserve with forest and heathland.

Extra beautiful when the heather is in bloom.

for a beautiful view over the heath.

A very nice and quite long boardwalk.

They weren't in bloom now, but I can imagine how beautiful it is here when everything is in full bloom.
