Piece of boardwalk on the way to or coming from 't Genaderen in a wet area near the Genaderse Mill and a bridge over the stream. 't Genaderen is a road that takes you to parking Ten Haagdoorn.

There are some not so hidden ponds next to the path, you can see them quite easily even at this time of year.

Sometimes it takes a while to find the path and especially where the pieces of wood and sticks are exactly under the mud that make it more passable now that work is being done to make the area wetter and better equipped in the context of the Blue Deal.

For the rest, indeed a very beautiful piece with the typical vegetation and deep colors of a swamp forest and lots of water.

Star Spot "Mysterious Marshes"

Highlight • Natural

You are here in the valley of the Laambeek and the Huttebeek. These streams have their source area on the dry, sandy Kempen Plateau. They are important lifelines for this wet valley. Drainage ditches, dykes and sluice gates used to make hay-land management possible in this region, where other forms of agriculture produced few results. In order to preserve numerous animals and plants, such as the spotted orchid and the snipe, the restoration of the water balance and good mowing management are very important today. The swamp forest, also called marsh forest, is created by ground, rain and stream water that cannot escape through the impenetrable peat soil. Black alders dominate the somewhat gloomy view, but in the spring it is a beautiful play of colors of water plants here. The maintenance of this forest mainly consists of small-scale felling of trees so that they can sprout again (copwood management). This gives you places with trees of different ages, so that many animals and plants find their favorite spot somewhere.

Here, on a road called "Het Genaderen", close to the highway, you will find one of the car parks that give access to Ten Haagdoornheide. The road to it passes along the Genaderse Watermill. Parking Ten Haagdoorn is not too big, but there is usually room. There is also a nice off-leash dog area. You will also find the 'classics' such as information boards and of course the hiking trails and other indications.
