Tour of Bergen op Zoom and the Western Scheldt

This beautiful big round from Bergen op Zoom takes you through the green areas east of Bergen op Zoom: recreation area De Heide and Landgoed Zoomland. The lanes and the wooded banks are home to cavity nesting birds such as the tree creeper and the tawny owl. And if you take a look around at dusk, you can see bats fluttering around. You cross the Brabantse Wal: you can clearly see the difference in height. This steep edge forms the sudden transition between the high Brabant sandy soils on the east side and the low-lying sea clay area of the Scheldt in the west. You drive back straight through Bergen op Zoom, a city with a rich history.
