Tour of Kampina from historic Oirschot

In Oirschot itself you will also be amazed. You can see the sixteenth-century Basilica of St. Peter and the Museum de Vier Quartieren, about life in Brabant in the past. Further on is the Mariakerk, a small building from the twelfth century. Via a nice cafe in the forest you drive to the Kampina, a vast nature reserve. The name is derived from the Roman word campina, which means waste ground. You can still see that primordial landscape in the Kampina. In August, the blooming heather creates a beautiful color mosaic in shades of purple. All around you will find authentic farms and hamlets. Wonderful cycling area!
