The nature reserves De Plateaux (Netherlands) and Hageven (Belgium) together form one nature reserve through which the border between Belgium and the Netherlands runs. It is a very varied area in the valley of the river De Dommel. This is a beautiful hiking area. We walked a walk suggested by Komoot (via Routes) here and it was fine.

It's a real pleasure trail! Magnificent landscapes that, for some, remind you of the Brackvenn Fagne on the heights of Eupen.

Today another walk from my inspiration book, this time by Annemiek and Maartje. What a beautiful walk! It included everything I love: forests, babbling brooks, boardwalks, a suspension bridge, a lookout tower, heathlands, birdwatching huts, mushrooms, quiet paths, a geocache here and there, and cattle.

What a special and beautiful environment. Very varied: flood meadows, grassland, heath, coniferous and deciduous forests, many fens, the Dommel with a swinging suspension bridge and especially a lot of variety.
Immediately also 4 new tiles ✅ and a full tank of Belgian petrol.
