This bird hide from Limburgs Landschap vzw on the edge of the De Zig nature reserve is not very large and offers a view of a limited pond, but I found it quite well located and pleasant despite its relative simplicity. The fact that a swallow has a nest in it and that some birds came to sit on the edges of the viewing openings while I was eating a sandwich may have played a role :) Even without binoculars I could see quite a lot of water birds.

Nice bird watching hut with good facilities. In addition to information about nature in the surrounding area, there are also tips for hiking and cycling (with a map) to take with you. There is also a thick non-fiction book "Heel de Peel" - Het boek over de Peel.

Unfortunately, pretty much the only way to observe the bird life in the "Natuurreservaat De Zig"... 🧐
