Brabantse Wal
On the border of Brabant and Zeeland lies the Brabantse Wal, one of the three Landscapes of Allure in North Brabant. An area where natural beauty, monuments and cultural events are intertwined.
The Brabantse Wal is a sandy plateau situated in the far west of the province of North Brabant, stretching from the Belgian border in the south to Steenbergen in the north and to the Wouwse Plantage in the east. The area is characterised by a great variety of landscapes. The undulating terrain of the Brabantse Wal rises to as much as 20 metres above sea level near Woensdrecht, offering beautiful views. After the climb, the landscape suddenly gives way to the vast polders around Steenbergen, the waters of the Zeeland delta and the woods of the Wouwse Plantage. Bergen op Zoom lies at the centre of the area.
On your journey of discovery along the Brabantse Wal , the Attractions Map and the Inspiration Guide are essential . The map and guide are available free of charge from VVV Brabantse Wal, VVV Information Points and local leisure providers. Have a look at the digital versions in advance:
