Walking through the outskirts of Deurne

In the countryside of Deurne you can enjoy peaceful walks through the fields and forests. This route takes you through the Zandbos. You will also pass through some attractive old hamlets.

Buntven
The route starts at Het Boerenhuis. Enjoy a terrace with coffee and the tastiest apple pie from the region, before walking into the Zandbos. Until the second half of the nineteenth century, this nature reserve consisted of heathland and drifting sands. Now you walk between Scots pines and American oaks. Walk to the Buntven to enjoy the silence and an idyllic view.

Berkendonk
Further on you pass through Berkendonk, a varied nature and recreation area with extensive meadows, forest and a large lake with reed borders. What a beautiful walk here! A little later you will pass Eel Pavilion Rijpelaal. Time for a pit stop on the cozy terrace. You cross the Bakelse Aa, after which you walk through some hamlets. In the surrounding fields you walk on car-free roads past fields, grasslands and characteristic farms. What a surprisingly nice walking area!
