Heideroute Heerlen

Heideroute Heerlen

You find the most beautiful moorlands at the Brunssummerheide, its German equivalent, the Teverenerheide, and in the surrounding areas, between Heerlen, Brunssum, Schinveld, and German Gillrath. On the Moorlands Route (Heideroute) you whizz through cool coniferous forests, past beautiful ponds and fens, and along vast moors, where flocks of sheep graze feely. Especially in August and September, this area turns into a deep shade of purple.  You start and finish at the restaurant at the Brunsummerheide, where you cannot only park your car, but also enjoy a delicious pancake or milkshake on the spacious outdoor terrace, afterwards.
