Malpiebeemden and Opperheide.

The Dommel flows right through the area, with the wetter meadows in particular on the east side and the higher dry forests and the large heather area on the west side. After a short visit to the town of Borkel, the hike first goes through the wooded part of the Malpie, after which the heathland is crossed. The heath area in particular is a very attractive walking area with various small but also large fens, such as the Groot Malpieven. Almost back at the starting point one passes the Venberg watermill as a point of interest.

87% of this walk is unpaved.

Because the De Malpie nature gate is not accessible by public transport, Borkel was chosen as the starting point for hikers with public transport.
