The Ouwe Brandtoren (Old Fire Tower) tavern, the beating heart of the Brandtoren Nature Gateway, is the perfect starting point for a walking, cycling, mountain biking or horse riding trip on the Peelse Heide heathland. Various lookout towers offer wonderful views across a nature reserve that extends to both sides of the Dutch-Belgian border. Families with young children will find plenty of places to play while the over-fifties can enjoy the tranquillity, good fresh food or a speciality beer in the middle of the countryside.

Packages
There are a large number of opportunities for a wonderfully active day in and around the tavern. Children will no doubt head for the playground equipment, but don’t forget to take them to the Keimennekespad: a play forest built around small fantasy figures. The Peelse Heide is also home to the ‘Large and Small Circles’ earthworks, a fitness trail and a Bee Garden.  And in addition to a beekeepers association you can also visit a snail breeder.

There is also a choice of various games for larger groups, such as ‘Crack the Code’  and XL patio games. You can also play many of these games indoors if the weather is bad. Or you can visit the nearby escape room where you have to puzzle out a way to find the exit. The tavern offers many more activities in conjunction with other organisations, such as culinary walks, creative workshops (from painting to fire eating!) and outdoor arrangements (via Outdoor Park Reusel).

 “Guus and Petra always know how to surprise us
You can enjoy a delicious coffee or one of more than 70 speciality beers on the large, attractive terrace, where tasty snacks are also served. Groups can also book a BBQ, culinary dinner, (lunch) buffet or a beer tasting. With the hallmark Brabant qualities of friendliness, conviviality and hospitality, the multilingual host Guus will make sure you soon feel at home.

So come and enjoy the many possibilities that the Ouwe Brandtoren tavern offers.
