Oisterwijkse Bossen en Vennen, Nature reserve with forests and ponds in Oisterwijk, Netherlands.
The Oisterwijkse Bossen en Vennen contains multiple water bodies surrounded by dense forests, heathlands, and sandy paths extending across the landscape.
The ponds within this nature area formed after the last ice age when strong winds created sand dunes, leaving depressions that filled with rainwater.
The Van Tienhovenbank, named after a nature conservation pioneer, provides visitors with a traditional meeting point overlooking the Van Esschenven pond.
Multiple walking routes connect through the reserve, with the Bezoekerscentrum Oisterwijk offering information, guided tours, and wheelchair-accessible paths.
The nature area contains specific plant species like moeraswolfsklauw and gagel, while supporting waterfowl populations including dodaars and kuifeend.
