Boardwalk through Cartierheide

Highlight • Trail

There is something irresistible about it, a wooden path that winds through nature. As if no one was supposed to get there at all. It gives the impression that anyone walking over this is venturing into unexplored and unknown territory. And actually that is true.
A decking path has several advantages. Firstly, it protects the subsoil and soil layer of the nature reserve, so that walkers cause only a minimum of nuisance to the environment. Secondly, such a path also ensures that walkers can complete their route without any scratches or wet feet.

The variation of these wet and dry areas in open and closed landscapes makes this heathland an important biotope for countless plant and animal species.

The Groot Pannegoor

Highlight • Natural

The Baron de Cartier de Marchienne eventually created a series of ponds in which the water level could be regulated (1910-1920). This regulation of the water level was necessary for the baron's favorite method of hunting, snipe hunting. The pond filled with water in the summer because the Dalems Stroompje flowed into the ponds. When the baron wanted to go hunting with his traveling party in September, the water level was lowered. This created mudflats on the sides of the ponds where the snipes came to forage.

Cartierheide

Highlight • Natural

The name of the area is taken from the Belgian diplomat Emile-Ernest de Cartier de Marchienne. His father, Mr. Paul-Emile de Cartier de Marchienne, bought the Duizels Hof, located near this heath, in 1863 and later passed into the hands of his son. Emile-Ernest de Cartier de Marchienne later became the owner of the heath and used it, among other things, as a hunting ground.
