In fact, the building is not a real castle, but a country house. After leaving Sint-Oedenrode, the tour goes to Boskant, this part of the tour mainly passes through an agricultural poplar landscape, an agricultural area with livestock farms and tree nurseries with many poplars along the country roads, which is typical for this area. From Boskant the tour goes via the Scheeken nature reserve towards Liempde. De Scheeken consists of a beautiful small-scale scenic landscape that dates back to the 12th century. There is a great variety of forests, groves, hedgerows, rows of trees, meadows and fields.
