The piece of heath in the Eerdse Bergen is the only remaining part of an enormous plain that used to extend to the Damians in St. Oedenrode. Unfortunately, much of this area has been lost to mining.

Viewpoint Schijndel

Highlight • Viewpoint

Not far from the town of Eerde,

is there really 😳 a mountain ⛰ in

the Netherlands.

To reach the “peak”

are on the rise

at least about 160 meters

to manage something.

> ⛰ The mountain is calling 🧗🏻‍♂️<😅😅

On the plateau, in addition to beautiful paths, there is also a beautiful viewpoint to visit.

From here, when the weather is nice, you can see very far into the country.

Monument windmill

Highlight • Monument

The mill of Koevering was formerly called the mill of Everswijck, a name derived from the hamlet of Everse under St. Oedenrode. In later times this name changed to Hertog Jan van Brabant. Even so, the place is still popularly referred to as the Koeveringse mill. Below is a translation of the letter issued by Duke John of Brabant in 1299 approving the construction of a mill:

To all who will see this letter.
We, Johannes, by God's grace Duke of Lorraine, Brabant and Limburg, announce that we hereditary give to our faithful and beloved Arnold, called Heym, in order to extend the property that he keeps from us on loan, a place on the border. between Rode and Schijndel, to build a windmill there. We grant him the right of free wind. He may build that mill in a place that will seem most suitable to him.

I saw this beautiful walk pass by and I immediately knew that I wanted to do it too. And I was not disappointed. Parking is possible at the church. From there I walk to the mill on the edge of the village. Here I also see the first references to the acts of war that took place here, more will …

Today, on this beautiful sunny Wednesday, we took a walk by An-Yv (she had it again from Adrie Raaijmakers) off my ever-growing list. And it was definitely worth it
You should not look at the average walking speed, because it was very low because we had to choose a different path every time due to mud, barrier or water. So …

Thanks to An-Yv (and Adrie Raaijmakers) for this beautiful trip. This is a good example of the fact that a garbage dump can also be beautiful!
A beautiful varied walk and with the beautiful weather today it was a double pleasure.

After a period of again injuries, I was finally able to make a trip again. So nice to be walking!
This time not one of my own, but a beautiful varied walking tour composed by Adrie Raaijmakers.
I hiked this trek on a sunny Friday morning in February. I never thought I'd like it on top of a garbage dump, …

Today a late, short walk from Eerde. I have walked in this area before, but it remains beautiful. On the way we saw a 🐷 standing in the mud, and we thought it was alone. But the longer we stayed there, the more people came to see what was going on. There were 7 in total who started enjoying the …
