Fen route from Boshuys Hermitage

This walking route starts at Boshuys Hermitage. Take a moment for a cup of coffee on the beautiful terrace by the water before putting on your walking shoes. With this route you will discover the famous Oisterwijkse Bossen en Vennen. You walk along several old fens where you can take a short break on a bench. On the rugged banks you can smell the fragrant bog myrtle and in season you can admire fairytale water lilies. You will pass the Staalbergven and the Van Esscheven. Both beautiful places to enjoy the silence or take a picture. The Oisterwijk fens are all equally fairytale-like, on their beautiful banks often grow rare plants such as marsh deer decoy, bulrush and bankweed. In some fens there are even islands.
