Where the Hageland and the Kempen meet, you’ll discover the Asdonk hiking area. The sandy soils give rise to a unique natural environment featuring heather, common buckthorn, and viviparous lizards. One moment you’re walking across wet valley floors, the next over dry ridges with stunning views of pollarded trees, hedges, and wooded edges. The Dassenaarde Nature Reserve is named after the badgers that made their home here until the 1950s.
