Water sources Limburg - Mookerhei

The route passes Landgoed Mookerheide. The estate, designated as a protected national monument since 2001, consists of a hunting lodge surrounded by a park and gardens. Its construction started in 1902. Together with the accompanying forests, the estate covers an area of 160 hectares. When Natuurmonumenten acquired the Mookerheide estate in 1985, it was hardly a'estate\\\'. After years of restoration, the estate is once again enjoyable to experience and well worth a visit.

Part of the Mookerhei is a groundwater protection area for extra protection of the groundwater. It concerns 380 ha and that is comparable to about 760 football fields. You can fully enjoy the Mookerhei, but handle it carefully! That means:

• stay on roads and trails;
• do not damage plants;
• take garbage with you;
• keep the dog on a leash and clean up the poop.
