Discover the primal nature of Brabant
Early in the morning you are at your most beautiful. Quiet and pure. A new start. Bring beauty and warmth when you rise. Bring life. Bring the early sounds of day. And let me witness the masterpiece you colour on the canvas of my view.
The Holenberg forest is the entrance to the heart of the Maashorst, the largest nature reserve of North-Brabant. This primal area has come about during the ice age and has an extraordinary history in which men and nature lived together. This is where the three large grazers of our country reign; the wisent, the taurus and the Exmoor pony.
