Walk between Zundert and Schijf. This goes past four domes that can be used as a lookout, shelter or just to sit down.
A beautiful route. Coffee at 't Pannehûske along the way and afterwards a bite to eat at restaurant De Moerse Bossen.
A nice varied walk with farmlands, heath, forest and a few fens.

Have walked here often, is a beautiful area, very quiet with walkers, but more cyclists. Beautiful nature and cozy catering on the route, at the starting point and a little before halfway. Route comes from the Route.nl app and largely follows the Henriëtte Roland Holst route
