Trail Reviews
Today, as promised this morning, we went on a short hike. The nature reserve is considered to be one of the darkest places in Europe, which means that there is almost no light pollution here and you can see a perfect starry sky at night. The nature reserve is also a real eye-catcher during the day. In addition to many bird species, you can always enjoy great views of the Lauweersmeer. However, I would not recommend the route to anyone with a stroller, as the paths are often very narrow and the entrance to the nature reserve was only possible by folding and then dismantling the stroller 😅. For me it was a great adventure.
beginning of the Rug, just after the Marneweg, park at Staatsbosbeheer. varied route, occasionally quite boggy. beautiful viewpoints
Took a walk in an area where I don't go often, and now I remember why 😁 The paths here are wet and muddy for a large part of the year. But I have never experienced it as wet as today! At one point we really couldn't go any further because it was too deep! Still it was a nice walk and we got some fresh air 😀
