Beautiful fen, but beware: during heavy rainfall the road becomes a dead end because it also floods.

Finally some time for a walk again. Unfortunately, the fens are almost dry. Nice to get some fresh air.

Hiked in January. The route was very swampy and in some parts the path was under water. Went off the road. The route is then no longer easy. Waterproof footwear recommended.
However, a very beautiful area with many waters.
