ブレダの湖・トップ20

Going for a walk there again. The path along the Galdersedreef fen is impassable, a large swimming pool, ducks swam across the path. Let's hope that forest management will do something about this, because otherwise you will never be able to pass by there again, I'm afraid.

In the winter like now very wet. So you can easily paddle if you are unlucky. The fens are a bit bigger so to speak...

Went for a walk there a month ago, but the boardwalk and several parts of the fen were closed. And now with all this rain it certainly won't be good for a while. Maybe go for a walk there again next summer l.

A beautiful resting place in a beautiful natural setting. The food you bring with you tastes even better here and you can enjoy the nature and silence.😊 😀

If it has rained a lot or the water level is quite high, the boardwalk itself (and some paths in the area) may be partially flooded.

Forest, fens and flowery meadows characterise the Pannenhoef, a beautiful nature reserve between Etten-Leur, Zundert, Rijsbergen and Sprundel, which is no less than 706 hectares in size. Originally, a kind of mini-Peel was located here. The entire peat package was dug away in a few centuries, between 1400 and 1750. In dried form - peat - it went to the cities via peat canals, as fuel for households and breweries. The most famous is the 'Turfvaart' that runs to Breda. What remained was a hilly heath with fens in the hollows. There was little to be gained there and so in the 19th century the area was developed into forest and agricultural land. Walking through varied forest and flowery meadow When Brabants Landschap bought this area in 1970, it was boring with few natural values: fertilised agricultural land, young uniform coniferous forest and no more fens. Little life to be seen. After 40 years, that image has changed completely: attractive mixed forest and no less than 11 fens have been dug up again. With that, rare plants came back, such as the heath serpent and marsh stag's-wort. And amphibians such as the pool and moor frog. The forests are home to mammals, such as the polecat and roe deer and birds such as the green woodpecker and buzzard.

A nature reserve that is worth walking in every season.

This is also a nice place for a walk in the summer. Sufficient variety in terms of sun and shady hiking trails.
