About the Great Heath
The Groote Heide, a vast nature reserve that straddles the border between the Netherlands and Belgium, offers the perfect setting for a trail run. This unique landscape is characterized by its expansive heathlands, dense forests, sand drifts, and fens, making it a diverse and challenging route for runners.
The trail run at De Groote Heide takes participants through varied terrain that demands the utmost agility and endurance. The trails wind through purple heather, across sandy plains, and through shady forests, with natural obstacles along the way adding an extra dimension. This variety makes every kilometer unique and keeps the runners sharp, both physically and mentally.
Besides the physical challenge, De Groote Heide offers an unparalleled natural experience. The tranquility and beauty of the landscape, with its rich biodiversity, give runners a sense of freedom and connection with nature. A trail run on De Groote Heide is not only an athletic achievement but also a moment of reflection and enjoyment of the unspoiled nature that makes this area so special.
