Vennenroute - Strabrechtse Heide - Welcome to my place

Welcome to De Plaetse!

A place where simple principles are being put into practice once again.

Explore 6,000 hectares of stunning nature in De Groote Heide Nature Park, located between Eindhoven and Pelt, using the Faro Heritage app.

Discover our themed trails, experience the landscape, and be inspired by the region’s rich history and ingenuity.

In the very spot where farmers once grazed their livestock, there is now an experimental garden that shows what is possible.

Discover how everything influences everything else: the past on the present, insects on sheep, cyclists on hikers, and vice versa.
This is where chapter one of an inventive story begins. Work with your hands and with what is at hand.

At De Plaetse, everything falls into place. The forest ranger and the shepherd are ready—will you join them?
