Gravel path along the Langven

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Langenboomse Bossen was originally a production forest that has become a more varied and attractive forest due to its current management. The nature reserve Langven and the Maurik is a still young nature reserve with the beautiful Langven, from the low drifting dunes you have a beautiful view over the fen. Casemates are found in various places in this area, these casemates were part of the De Peel-Raamstelling defense line. Soon after the start of the Second World War, this line was broken. De Kuilen where sand excavators once stood is a surprising lake area that is increasingly getting a natural character, Scottish highlanders graze in the area

A beautiful morning to go cycling early. A night frost and a sunrise, you can't really have it better. A tour in the vicinity of Escharen, Mill and Wanroij. Very nice and quiet area. Lots of gravel and dirt roads.
