Walking with the kids on quintelooijen

Discover the diversity of Kwintelooijen in a 1,600-metre walking route: from heathlands and old excavations to wooded slopes and wetlands. This creates an impressive variation in flora and fauna along the paved paths. The area is home to a rich variety of bird life, including many pipits, larks, tits, woodpeckers, thrushes, geese, hawk, buzzard and honey buzzard. The surrounding grasslands and shrubs provide habitat for various animal species, including sand lizards and a wide variety of breeding birds. The forests and waters are an attraction for seasonal migratory birds and provide a home to many species. Furthermore, more than 400 species of mushrooms have been found in the area, which contributes to a high biodiversity. In addition to the common deciduous and coniferous trees, the shrub heath dominates the heathland landscape. A beautiful walk for young and old.
