Tour of Afferden between forests, heath and Maas

Afferden is located about 26 kilometers south of Nijmegen and 12 kilometers north of Venray. In this Limburg church village on the Maas you start a beautiful walk of more than seven kilometers through one of the gems of the Netherlands. The walk takes you across the heath plains and forests of De Maasduinen National Park. Do you spot the rare nightjar along the way? It's still here! The area is also home to more than thirty different butterfly species, including the heather blue and the small kingfisher butterfly. You start and end the walk at the cozy Eetwinkel Het Eendje in Afferden. Of course not after a fresh cup of coffee with a pastry, or a well-deserved drink afterwards.
