Through the green of North Brabant

Armed with a pocket book to identify plants, you will be able to identify many different species on the Neterselse Heide. Marsh clubmoss, bog asphodel, marsh gentian, white beak sedge and sundew, they can all be found in the 229 hectares of Neterselse Heide.

The heathland consists mainly of wet heathland, although there are also dry areas. There is also a rare type of forest to be found: birch swamp forest. The soft birch grows slowly here on an acidic, nutrient-poor soil. The trees are relatively not high, they do not grow taller than 5 to 10 meters. Bell heather, bog myrtle, peat moss and humpback hair moss grow between the trees. The hen harrier, woodlark and robin whistle their song in the trees and provide a cacophony of sound as you find your way through the greenery of Brabant.

When you return to Auberge De Hilver, where the route begins and ends, sit down on the terrace. Experience the Brabant conviviality and Let your tongue be tantalized by the surprisingly delicious regional dishes on the menu. If you want to see more of the area, book a stay here. The rooms in the cozy inn are very atmospheric. The bicycles are safely stored in the shed (with electric charging point), so that you can take another trip the next day.
