Large tree completely covered in tinder fungi. This piece of forest consists of hills, winding roads and fallen trees. Nice to walk through or over!

Dwingelderveld Forest Trail

Highlight • Forest

A flat, sandy path, best just after a light rain. The smell of the forest and heath is even more intense, and the sand drifts minimally.

The boardwalks on this route are where the route gets its name from. Lovely playful walk on the plank paths over the water.
