Mepperhooilanden

Highlight • Natural

Lovely, quiet walking area. As a bird lover you can really enjoy yourself here. From marsh harrier to meadow pipit and from hawk to crested lark, with the special addition of the sea eagle.

Gees Forest Nature Reserve

Highlight • Forest

Boswachterij Gees mainly consists of deciduous forest that was planted in the 1930s. The area has grown into a beautiful nature reserve where you can walk in peace, even here on the edge.

Bridge Over the Geeserstroom

Highlight • Bridge
