Wooden Bridge Over Pond With Lily Pads

Highlight • Bridge

Hageven Birdwatching Hut

Highlight • Structure

The hut is built on the edge of a large pond, surrounded by reed fields and forests. This provides an ideal habitat for many water birds, such as ducks, geese and grebes. In addition, it is also possible to see birds of prey, such as the buzzard and sparrowhawk, and other bird species. But you will have to choose: bird watching or walking 😉

Observation Tower De Wulp

Highlight • Viewpoint

The lookout tower is approximately 30 meters high and offers a beautiful panoramic view of the De Wulp nature reserve and the surrounding area. The De Wulp nature reserve is an important breeding area for various bird species and the tower gives visitors the opportunity to observe these birds in their natural habitat. We had a nice view of a heron.

Plateaux-Hageven

Highlight • Natural

Boundaries blur in De Plateaux-Hageven, a Dutch-Belgian nature reserve. Walk through forests and over heathland, past fens and floodplains: a water system from the early 19th century! In spring you will find orchids, in autumn autumn crocus colours the meadows purple.
De Plateaux forms a whole with the Belgian nature reserve Hageven and is located between dry sandy soils and the Dommel stream valley. Enjoy the varied landscape during one of the many walking routes.

Variety: heath, forest, water ... now and then a bird hut where you can see something.

Today another walk from my inspiration book, this time by Annemiek and Maartje. What a beautiful walk! It included everything I love: forests, babbling brooks, boardwalks, a suspension bridge, a lookout tower, heathlands, birdwatching huts, mushrooms, quiet paths, a geocache here and there, and cattle.

Today a cross-border walk from the well-hidden parking lot Het Plateaux, Barrier 15, Bergeijk. After a nice forest road and a cart track, where we met two orioles with telephoto lenses (big horns) at the Hoge Brug, we walk onto the open moorland of the Hageven nature reserve. We are already here in Belgium. A little further on we walk …

May 8, 2025,Boucle Hageven - De Plateaux au départ du Natuurpunt de Pelt

It's a real pleasure trail! Magnificent landscapes that, for some, remind you of the Brackvenn Fagne on the heights of Eupen. For others, walking in the sand among the pine trees and with the sound of crickets, you could believe you were in the south of France. Especially since the many bodies of water suggest that the sea is nearby …
