Discover the Orderbos

For a shorter walk, the route through the Orderbos is an excellent choice. This 3.3 km walk takes you through both Berg & Bos and the historic Orderbos, with stately lanes and babbling brooks. You will also find remnants of medieval iron mining and ancient burial mounds. The straight lanes show the original pattern of afforestation, which started in the late 19th century.
