Aekingerbroek

Highlight • Natural

The Aekingerbroek swamp area is the origin of the Vledder Aa, which has recently been allowed to flow freely again. As a result of the measures, the stream drains less water and dehydration is reduced. Nature can develop again. Birds, butterflies, dragonflies and plants benefit from this.

July 11, 2024,Nationalpark Drents Friese Wold – Ein herrliches Stück Natur!

That was nature in its purest form.
There was everything from horses to rare red ants and jays, etc.
The change between heath, sandy plains, forest, lakes and veen was great.
Halfway through the route we had coffee and apple pastries at the information center in Diever.
