Smuggling across the border

Strijbeek 8 km

This is where smugglers used to sneak through the woods at the risk of their lives to bring goods and people illegally across the border. Nowadays, you can go for lovely walks there. It is as if nature has stood still in this place; an authentic piece of Brabant nature.
