Tungelroy Brook.
The Areven is a varied nature reserve with woods, meadows and hay meadows, a beautiful varied walking area. The Tungelroy Brook has again become a beautiful meandering brook with some nice bridges. One of these bridges is a replica of a wooden brook bridge from Roman times. During excavation work on the Tungelroyse brook, remains of a wooden brook bridge from Roman times have been uncovered. This inspired a group of volunteers to build a replica of the bridge over the Tungelroy brook. The Tungelerwallen is a planted pine forest that is interspersed with patches of heather and drifting sand, in this area an elongated drifting dune is followed. At the end of the walking tour you will pass through the nice Landgoed de Sjans located on the Molenbroek. Other places of interest are the De Nijverheid windmills in the area, better known as the mill of Nijs and the Sint Jan.
