    Hiking

    Just after sunrise a beautiful mist hung over the purple moor. Getting up early pays off during this period (August), then the light is very nice and it is still quiet on the heath.

    Hiking

    On the Hoorneboegse heide, you might encounter a viviparous lizard or a slow worm. The heath and the transitions to the forest are particularly rich in bird species. It can be especially worthwhile to scan the surroundings with binoculars in August and September. During this period, the purple heather blooms and is frequently visited by butterflies, bees, and other insects.
