Somerenの天然記念物・トップ20

The Roof of Brabant, located on the Gulberg near Nuenen/Mierlo, is an artificial hill that emerged from a former landfill and is now one of the region's most striking landmarks. With a summit of approximately 60 meters, the hill offers a panoramic view rarely found anywhere else in Brabant. From the summit, you can look out over the Luchense Heide, the surrounding forest, the Eindhoven Canal, and, on a clear day, even as far as Eindhoven and Helmond. The slopes of the Gulberg are covered with rugged grass and shrubs, making the area a habitat for birds and small mammals. The summit is regularly visited by hikers, runners, and mountain bikers, but it remains a place where you literally stand above the landscape. The contrast between the natural environment and its industrial origins makes it a unique viewpoint that is always worth pausing for a moment.

Here you can see how high the water level is in this peat area.

The visible mound bodies of heathland plaggen, in round or elongated form, such as burial mounds and long beds, characterize the landscape. A total of 312 round burial mounds and 36 long beds have been registered on the Boshoverheide. The length of the long beds varies between 4.5 and 42 m. The mounds of the Boshoverheide are on average not very high. Of the mounds that were still completely preserved and have since been restored, more than two thirds are no higher than half a meter. The diameter of these mounds ranges from about 4 to 8 meters. The largest mound with a diameter of 17 meters is also the highest at 1.2 meters.

Beautiful hiking area. Rightly a national park!

Eindhoven skyline in the gray mist.

Great spot to play with the MTB and the gravel bike. The MTB route is in some places easy to do with a gravel bike. In other parts it is better to take the MTB. Many beautiful wide gravel paths on, around and over this waste mountain. The switchbacks on the side of the golf course are great if you want to make some altitude meters. All around a beautiful view of the surroundings and in the distance the skyline of Eindhoven.
