Boswachterij Dorst

On Sunday 5 January, the nature guides from IVN Mark &amp; Donge will kick off the new year with a winter walk.

The Boswachterij Dorst is an extensive nature reserve featuring forests, clay pits, and sand drift landscapes. While walking through the forest, you will reach the heart of the area at the old clay pits. Clay was once quarried here to make bricks. Now, these are beautiful ponds surrounded by a large grazing area. Following incidents with Highland Cattle due to increased crowds, Staatsbosbeheer has implemented zoning, so that walkers, cyclists, and riders do not interfere with each other or the grazers. Cyclists and riders now have separate routes. The core area is now a quiet zone, where only walkers without dogs are allowed. It is grazed by eight Galloways, calm hornless cattle. Grazing is very important for this area to maintain the varied plant growth; otherwise, the terrain will gradually turn into a forest.

We will explore the wintry nature with all its unique phenomena. Join us for a Sunday afternoon in the forest!More information and the registration form can be found on the IVN Mark &amp; Donge website under Activities.
