드 그루트 필 국립공원 최고의 러닝 경로

It's fun. With kids' bikes, gravel bikes, CX and XC bikes – as long as it's reasonably agile. (Of course, it also works with long full-suspension bikes – it's just "over-biked".) Perfect "no-hill flow" :-))

De Groote Peel National Park is one of the last remaining raised bog remnants of the immense peatland that once covered large parts of Brabant and Limburg. The landscape consists of a vast mosaic of open peat plains, wet lowlands, large pools created by peat extraction, long, straight peat strips, birch thickets, reed beds, and bare swamp areas that constantly change in shape and water level. The combination of openness, water, and rugged peat vegetation makes the area unique in the Netherlands and gives an impression of what the raised bog landscape must have looked like before exploitation. De Peel has always been difficult to access due to its damp and impassable nature, which has ensured that large parts of the landscape have been spared from complete exploitation. However, traces of historical peat cutting are visible everywhere: peat pits, straight canals, small dikes, and old working paths still form the structure of the current landscape. The rugged and wet terrain has fostered a rich natural environment, with abundant peat moss, heath-like vegetation, open water, mudflats, and transition zones that change with the seasons. The area is known as one of the most bird-rich wetlands in Western Europe. The open ponds and reed beds attract countless waterfowl, while the vast plain forms an important resting area for migrating cranes during migration periods. The tranquility and openness are characteristic: large parts of the Peel have virtually no development or disturbance, allowing the landscape to retain its character of vast emptiness and expansiveness. The Peel is regularly closed off to protect vulnerable natural areas or to bridge wet periods, as part of the management efforts aimed at restoring and preserving the raised bog environment.

endless views over grass and heathland landscapes with many fens.

I always like boardwalks

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

Beautiful walking area with a bench here and there to enjoy

A beautiful wooden path
