May 29, 2023,Empese en Tondense Heide Rondje vanuit Klein-Amsterdam

Started at the Coöperatie in Klein-Amsterdam.
Started early for me, walking at 10 am. Advantage: not too hot and quiet in terms of walkers.
Got a beautiful route from Komoot.
Beautiful nature and varied landscape.
This route is slightly longer and different from the marked walk
of Natural Monuments.
I enjoyed 😍

Despite the name, these are not classic heathlands, but a diverse landscape of wet meadows, moors, small ponds and scattered trees and bushes. This mosaic of …

Today we were out on the Tondense Heide again – this time expecting to see beautiful lake landscapes. In March, we had already done a proper moorland hike here, where we walked through wet sections and small pools.

Today, however, at the end of August, a completely different picture emerged: There was hardly anything left of the lake landscape, the …

The Empense and Tondense Heide is in my opinion one of the most beautiful nature reserves in our area. We love to come here (especially on Sunday mornings) to walk around. Nature is very varied here and there is always something to see. Natuurmonumenten is very active here to enlarge the area and restore it to its original state. It …

A good night of rain preceded this walk in this surprising piece of nature just north of Hall. Soggy paths interspersed with decking meander through the peat and grass area. To top it off you will come across a cute information hut with explanations about the area. Highly recommended this walk.
