Although the Fochteloërveen consists of a lot of raised peat, you will also find beautiful forests there, such as this beech forest. Listen to the rustling of the leaves and relax in the wonderful greenery.

Route, partly through the peat and forest and partly on small roads. Lots of birds. Including crane, marsh harrier, meadow pipit, linnet, stonechat. Great bite to eat in Veenhuizen at Piepers en Paupers and of course a bottle of mealtime.
