The icons
De Loonse en Drunense Duinen is where you'll find forest, heathland and lots of drifting sand in just one area. In fact, this 270-hectare Brabant Sahara is one of the largest areas of drifting sand in Western Europe. You can enjoy hiking, cycling, horseback riding or mountain biking (MTB) in De Loonse en Drunense Duinen. To then unwind at one of the surrounding catering establishments.
The Efteling is a world of wonders where you can let your imagination run wild. Crash into a gold mine at 90 km/h, walk among your favorite fairy tales or go on a world trip with Jokie and Jet. A day in the magical realm of the Efteling always promises to be an enchanted day. Iconic to the Efteling, of course, is the pagoda: even well before you arrive, you can spot this spinning Thai temple in the sky. Step in and enjoy the phenomenal, panoramic view of De Efteling's surroundings.
The Schoenenkwartier can be found in the heart of Waalwijk. And that's not surprising. Because say Waalwijk? Then you say shoe town! In this leather and shoe museum you will learn everything about the leather and shoe industry from past to present and into the future. A must for lovers of shoes, design, architecture, art, history and culture. You can even digitally design your own shoe! With changing exhibitions and experiments in the making lab, you will always experience something unique.
Fortified town Heusden attracts visitors from all over the world. You can discover this atmospheric fortified town in North Brabant, for example, during one of the many walking or cycling routes. With its picturesque alleys, historic buildings, unique stores, delicious restaurants and well-equipped harbor, Vestingstad Heusden is a true Valhalla for lovers of history, art, culture and the good Burgundian lifestyle.
