Herperduin is a vast nature reserve between Herpen and Oss, on the north side of De Maashorst. The landscape consists of forests, shifting sands, heathlands, and open spaces where the old history of the Brabant sandy soils is still clearly visible. Originally, this area largely consisted of heath and sand drifts. Through centuries of land use, poor sandy soils developed where the landscape constantly changed. Later, large parts were afforested, mainly with Scots pine, to stabilize the shifting sand and produce timber. This resulted in the varied forest landscape you see today. Between the trees, there are still open sandy patches and heath remnants that are reminiscent of the former landscape. The transition between forest and open terrain, in particular, makes Herperduin attractive to walkers: one moment you are walking through a quiet forest lane, the next you find yourself in the middle of an open landscape with distant views. The area is part of De Maashorst and is known for its tranquility, wide sandy paths, and natural diversity. In addition to nature, you will also find traces of the past, such as old paths, burial mounds, and landscape elements that show that people have used these higher sandy soils for thousands of years. A typical Brabant nature area where forest, sand, and history come together.

Beautiful nature reserve

It is indeed a bit further East on the intersection with the MTB trail - thus even better location!

It is an incredibly hard segment with super sharp turns and unexpected, steep climbs. Certainly nothing for beginners. Also not recommendable on 'XL' gravel bikes. On a MTB you will at least get through it - mediocre fun :D
