Description
With this cycle route you almost feel like you are abroad, given the rolling landscape and the beautiful viewpoints. Although the route is close to the border with Germany, Montferland, as this region is called, is still really the Netherlands. Montferland is located on a moraine that reaches heights of 91 meters.
The Bergherbos consists of coniferous forest and mixed forest; Here and there the original oak-beech forest still occurs. Mammals such as badgers, deer, stone martens and bats live in the forest area. In the Middle Ages, iron was extracted from hammer stones in the Bergherbos. These were found at not too great a depth in the seabed.
Where the rocking stones were excavated, typical elongated pits now remain: the iron pits. Enjoy the views from the hilltops, for example of nearby's Heerenberg. Here and there you will really feel the uneven terrain in your legs
