On the east side of Eindhoven lies the Karpendonkse Plas, a large city lake created in the 1950s by sand quarrying. Where sand was once extracted, you'll now find a diverse nature and recreation area. The lake is surrounded by walking and cycling paths and is a popular spot for those seeking peace and quiet, fishermen, and sports enthusiasts. In the morning and evening, a serene tranquility often reigns here, and you can spot numerous waterfowl, such as grebes, cormorants, and geese. In summer, the water sparkles in the sun, and along the banks you'll see flowers and reeds, giving the landscape a natural look. The Karpendonkse Plas also has cultural significance: annual events are held here, but nature prevails most of the time. Its location, close to the center of Eindhoven yet with an open and green atmosphere, makes it an ideal spot for a short walk or to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.

On the Dommel River, between Nuenen and Eindhoven, lies the Opwetten Watermill. This mill has a long history: it was mentioned as early as the 11th century, and for centuries, no fewer than three wheels turned simultaneously – making it the largest watermill in the Netherlands at one time. The mill played an important role in the region, both economically and for its landscape. Today, it is a protected monument and a popular stop on walks and bike rides. From the mill, you can look out over the water and the surrounding meadows, where herons, ducks, and other waterfowl can be found. The Opwetten Watermill was also immortalized by Vincent van Gogh, who drew and painted it several times while living in Nuenen. This makes it not only a place of technology and nature, but also of art and culture.

Looks like modular bridge from WWII times.

Painted by Vincent van Gogh, beautiful authentic watermill

Crazy cool semi-lowered roundabout with lots of cool graffiti.

Beautiful route mainly along the Dommel. Note that it must have been dry weather for a while otherwise you will walk ankle deep through the mud (sadly speaking from experience!). Otherwise a nice quiet walk to do.

Beautiful old watermill. Nice terrace and nice surroundings to take a walk.
