The Borgvliet Dunes are the breeding grounds of the Nightjar. That's why those beams are there; stay behind them to avoid disturbing the nests! You can also sometimes see deer passing by in the distance.

Stop off here and take a walk. It's beautiful here.

The Borgvlietse Duinen is a vast area with sand drifts, crossed by the walking route Trage Tocht Zoomland. The area is reminiscent of the larger Loonse and Drunense Duinen, a little further away in Brabant, but in a more compact form. The landscape is rugged and quiet, with wide sandy plains and special nature.

Along the Oostdijk between the Tonnekreek and Willemstad is 'De Wachter' a special work of art. De Wachter stands exactly on the spot where the storm surge on 1 February 1953 hit and flooded the Ruigenhilpolder. The work of art is an eight-metre-high hill, on which sheep can graze. The work of art De Wachter, by artist Marius Boender, was built along the Hollandsch Diep at the spot where the dike broke during the Flood Disaster in 1953. The reason for the monument was the completion of the dike reinforcement in 2001. The work of art is an eight-metre-high, pyramid-like clay hill, overgrown with grass. You can climb the work of art via a path that winds over the work of art. There is a good chance that you will do so in the company of grazing sheep. The creation of the work of art was a challenge, because factors such as weight (not too heavy), weather resistance (rain and wind) and construction (not subsidence under pressure from visitors) had to be taken into account.

The De Roode Weel wheel was created after a dike breach. It is located in a nature reserve that is part of the Cruijslandse Kreken. This area near the fortified town of Steenbergen is a true paradise for bird lovers. Because it is the domain of, among others, the marsh harrier, water rail, common snipe and little owl. They can be 'secretly' spotted from the birdwatching hut since the beginning of 2018. This architectural masterpiece is located at the bottom of the dike and offers a magnificent view of the Roode Weel. It is made of Accoya wood, just like the picnic jetty at De Blauwe Sluis. This creates unity between the various objects along the West Brabantse Waterlinie. Want to know more?

De Bergse Heide Landscape Park was created on drifting dunes that have been pushed up by centuries of influence from the prevailing sea wind from the southwest. Now the sand is held together by mixed forest. The great contrast between higher-lying dry wooded sand heads and the lower-lying moist open spaces offer plenty of living space for a wide diversity of plants and animals. There are many facilities to discover for both active and passive recreation. Source: https://www.visitbrabant.com/nl/locations/3867394415/bergse-heide
