The mountains of North Brabant ⛰️

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Roof of Brabant, located on the Gulberg near Nuenen/Mierlo, is an artificial hill that emerged from a former landfill and is now one of the region's most striking landmarks. With a summit of approximately 60 meters, the hill offers a panoramic view rarely found anywhere else in Brabant.

From the summit, you can look out over the Luchense Heide, the surrounding forest, the Eindhoven Canal, and even towards Eindhoven and Helmond in clear weather. The slopes of the Gulberg are covered with rugged grass and shrubs, making the area a habitat for birds and small mammals.

The summit is regularly visited by hikers, runners, and mountain bikers, but it remains a place where you literally stand above the landscape. The contrast between the natural environment and its industrial origins makes it a unique viewpoint that is always worth pausing for a moment.

View from De Gulbergen

Highlight • Viewpoint

De Gulbergen is a former garbage dump on the border of Nuenen and Geldrop-Mierlo.
Nowadays a mountain bike route leads you to the top which is located 60 meters above NAP[2] (40 meters above ground level) and a surprising view of the Eindhoven skyline.

I'm back! 🙈 I've lost my heart to Brabant. "The Roof of Brabant," or the Gulbergen estate, is a former landfill 60 meters high, now beautifully grassed. The view and panorama are breathtaking; it's literally the highest point in Brabant. It's a very famous mountain bike trail that's perfect for walking. Just be careful not to wander onto one of …
