Descrizione

The Wijffelterbroek, together with the Smeetshof nature reserve in Belgium (also described on Birdingplaces), is one large cross-border nature reserve. In recent years, the old border marsh has been restored, rehydrated and connected. The marsh area is surrounded by wet meadows. In this way, the species-rich grazed and wet nature was restored. Because the area has become much more humid again, many birds have returned. Breeding birds include Tortora selvatica, Rigogolo, Lodolaio, Martin pescatore, Beccafico, Cannaiola verdognola, Forapaglie macchiettato, Migliarino di palude and Cannaiola.

_________________________

Nederlands: Het Wijffelterbroek is samen met het in België gelegen natuurgebied Smeetshof één groot grensoverschrijdend natuurgebied. Het is onderdeel van Grenspark Kempen-Broek. De afgelopen jaren is het oude grensmoeras hersteld, vernat en aan elkaar verbonden. Het moerasgebied wordt omringd door vochtige weilanden. Zo werd de soortenrijke begraasde en natte natuur teruggebracht. Doordat het gebied weer veel vochtiger is geworden, zijn er ook weer veel vogels teruggekeerd. Broedvogels zijn onder meer Tortora selvatica, Rigogolo, Lodolaio, Martin pescatore, Beccafico, Cannaiola verdognola, Forapaglie macchiettato, Migliarino di palude en Cannaiola.

Klik op de P in de kaart voor een routebeschrijving. Het Wijffelterbroek is goed toegankelijk via een netwerk van wegen en wandelpaden. In een aantal gebieden is bij de ingang aangegeven dat ze vrij toegankelijk zijn. Houdt wel minimaal 25 meter afstand tot de grote grazers in de natuurgebieden. Als het heel nat is, kunnen sommige paden onbegaanbaar of afgesloten zijn. De wandelroute die op de kaart is aangegeven is ongeveer 7 km en loopt ook deels door het Belgische natuurgebied Smeetshof.

Trek hoe dan ook goede waterdichte schoenen aan en in zeer natte periodes zijn laarzen aan te bevelen. En zorg dat je altijd muggenwerend spul bij de hand hebt.

Vosseven Nature Park in Stramproy is ideally located for bird watching in the cross-border nature park of Kempen-Broek. Immersed in nature Vosseven is a perfect base for exploring the beautiful wetlands, fields and forests of this bird-rich nature park on the border of Belgium and The Netherlands. Especially since Kempen-Broek has been restored to it's former glory many rare birds can be observed. Quote from a birder that stayed recently in Vosseven Nature Park “We visited many of the bird areas in the Kempen-Broek that are described on Birdingplaces. Most of them we could easily reach on foot or by bike from Vosseven Nature Park, it's all quite close. Beautiful sites like Wijffelterbroek, Smeetshof, Kettingdijk, Tungelerwallen, Laurabossen and the outstanding De Luysen - Mariahof. We saw many special birds such as Golden Oriole, Great Bittern, Little Bittern, Kingfisher, Hobby, European Turtle Dove, Spoonbill and Red-backed Shrike and lots of other bird species.”
