Autumn Swamp (2)

This landscape shot shows the warm coloured swampy peat moors of ‘Hohes Venn’ in autumn.
‘Hohes Venn’ is the greatest (4500 ha) and oldest National Park of Belgium and the most unique nature biotope in the land.

The whole area is vast and desolate.
It consists mainly of swamps which can only be traversed by using the wooden paths that were made by the local foresters.

***

The surroundings looks safe and accessible but it is nearly impossible to leave those wooden paths, because the swamp starts immediately to suck your feet and legs into the depth and the more you struggle to get out, the more the swamp sucks……

This makes swamp hiking a unique experience.
