🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️Once upon a time, a knighthood of queers marched over yet another heather field. Come slay & sashay with us at the Strabrechtse Heide 🐉🏰
🥾⚔️ Strap on those boots and let your queer & social justice warrior spirit strut across this trail! Starting at Geldrop station, the trail flirts with the picturesque Kleine Dommel river before opening into wide heathlands — all big skies, views and endless chances to snap and serve 📷💃 Along the way we’ll pass a heath garden and even the fairytale Kasteel Heeze (because every queen/king/royal or peasant deserves a castle moment). With options for 13 or 17 kilometers on mostly easy trails, it’s the perfect stroll to stretch those legs huntyyy! 👣
