Happiness walk Montfort

This walking route takes you through the beautiful surroundings of Montfort. At the end of Kerkstraat you pass the beautiful monumental parsonage from 1787. Then you walk a bit along the Vlootbeek and you pass the ruins of Kasteel Montfort, a castle originally from the thirteenth century that was built by order of Hendrik III van Gelre. On the left is the former castle garden. Further on you walk through the nature reserve Reigersbroek, an old marsh and peat area. The lookout tower is Geluksplek 1 Roerdalen. In the adjacent Landgoed Rozendaal you walk along flowery fields, summer oaks and a few conifers. You also pass Geluksplek 2 Roerdalen, a drifting sand area that amazes people. Back in Montfort it is time for a nice snack and drink on the cozy terrace of Cafe biej de Vogel.
