More about the Groote Heide

Municipality of Heeze-Leende is located in the middle of the Groote Heide. The Groote Heide, that's outdoors at its best! No less than six thousand hectares of beautiful nature stretches from the south side of Eindhoven to across the Belgian border. The Strabrechtse Heide, the Leenderbos, De Malpie and Plateaux-Hageven and the Beverbeekse Heide are all part of this fine natural border park. And there's more...

Across De Groote Heide runs an extensive network of hiking and cycling trails. For a short trip, but certainly also for a full-day program here are also equestrian trails, MTB and cycling routes to find. All this in a setting of beautiful and varied nature with forests, farmland, many moors and not to forget: water. Lots of water!

The stream valleys of the Warmbeek/Tongelreep, the Dommel and the Aa's all meander through this beautiful natural area.

The landscape is further enriched by the picturesque village centers and dynamic staff centers. As a starting or ending point of your route through nature, but also as an addition to your visit to the region. Whether you choose a cozy terrace or a visit to an interesting exhibition or museum or just want to store, you will be pleasantly surprised.

All this makes De Groote Heide a unique place to enjoy, unwind and recharge.
