Bussummerheide

Highlight • Natural

A beautiful moorland on the edge of Bussum. Expansive and vistas. Scottish Highlanders keep the area open. The cattle walk inside the fence and dogs must be on a lead. Outside, dogs are allowed to run around freely. It is therefore a popular outlet area.

Beautiful landscape just outside of Hilversum. If you're lucky you come across a flock of sheep or cattle.

overnight pen

Highlight • Rest Area

The deep hole created by the sand excavations has been bridged with the arrival of the Zanderij Crailoo Nature Bridge. The Bussummer- and Westerheide and the Spanderswoud are now connected again as before the excavations.

An overnight corral for sheep has now been realized not far from the excavations.
