A beautiful tranquil environment. The area is located on a moraine created by glacial ice pushing up the land. A fascinating sight!

Nice to meet the Scottish Highlanders like this. You can quickly find them on the basis of the fresh heaps of droppings.

Fantastic area to walk and varied. You walk through the forest and the fantastic heath. Area is very hilly so it is often uphill and downhill.

January 19, 2023,De Twee Schansen wandeling op de Mookerheide...
Finally a walk in dry weather and sunshine. It didn't go without a hit or a hit, but together with Tilly I still had a lovely walk. An area worth repeating... You can read my report at riannes.blog/2023/01/20/twee-schansen-wandel

Nice varied walk with a considerable difference in altitude, so good for the leg muscles

Highly recommended terrain and tour. Everything a forest has to offer can be found here. Including a castle with a hotel and restaurant (though I haven't tried it yet).
Simply beautiful and highly recommended.
So what are you waiting for? 😁

We were back at the car just in time for the rain to begin. I love it when a plan succeeds 👍🤗

A wonderful route ❤️ Very varied! There are so many great paths... Whether you prefer paved trails or trails... there is something for everyone here. If you're really brave, you can get very close to Scottish highland cattle, which are in a specially fenced area.

Today we parked our car at Café het Zwaantje on the provincial border of Gelderland and Limburg. It's a beautiful area for walking. Because we walk there often, I planned a different route than usual this time. And I have to say, it turned out well. We came across lovely paths and roads with few walkers, which we appreciate even …
