デマースダイネン国立公園のおすすめランニングルート

Saint Roch, to whom this chapel is dedicated, was born in Montpellier, France, in the mid-14th century. He is popularly regarded—along with Saint Sebastian—as a "plague saint." A characteristic feature of Roch's depictions in paintings and statues is that he usually points to a plague boil on his leg; often a dog is also seen at his feet, for according to legend, when Roch himself contracted the plague and withdrew into solitude, this dog provided him with bread daily. Saint Roch's feast day in the liturgical calendar is August 16.

Want a moment of wow on your route through De Hamert Estate? Then don't miss the Trappenburg viewpoint. You're just a little higher than your surroundings, allowing you to truly read the contours of the landscape: the river dunes, the forests, and sometimes even the contours of the German landscape on the other side. Fun fact: the name Trappenburg doesn't come from an actual castle ruin, as you might think, but from the stepped structure of hills and paths that naturally formed here. Tip: plan this stop around sunrise or sunset. The light makes the view truly magical.

The kind of place where, after a few minutes' walk, you forget you're in the Netherlands. At De Hamert, you'll walk across ancient river dunes from the Ice Age, past vast heathlands and tranquil fens—and suddenly you'll find yourself at a gigantic burial mound: the "Prince's Grave." Thousands of years old. It's quite bizarre to think that people once buried their dead here... and now you're just walking past it. Along the way, with a bit of luck, you'll spot Galloway cattle, numerous birds, and that characteristic silence you can almost literally feel. ✔️ Diverse landscape ✔️ Beautiful vistas ✔️ A touch of mystery & history Tip: take some time at the fens (and if possible, go early in the morning or towards sunset—it's truly magical then).

The artwork was created by Norbert Simons and symbolizes the bond of friendship that existed between the local residents and the Ambonese. For more detailed and interesting information, see: https://www.archiefwell.nl

Beautiful there. Beautiful in the harbor.

Like Quin Ven, Zevenboomsven is located in a hollow in the river dunes. A birdwatching wall offers a birdwatching overview of some of the birds that inhabit the area, and the classic opportunity to peer down into the fen (and the heathland beyond) through recesses in the wall. From the Zevenboomsven car park on the other side of the road, it's just a minute's walk away. A great way to start or end a walk if you're parked here.

There's a bench at the lookout tower so you can enjoy the view from the dune. A nice bonus is that you can rotate this bench 360 degrees. Source: https://www.natuurparkenlimburg.nl/np/de-maasduinen/de-maasduinen-hoofdmenu/ontdek-3/pareltjes/april-uitkijktoren
