Recreational Gate
Restaurant De Kriekeput has long been known in the region as an outdoor swimming pool where many people would swim on warm summer days. In 2007, a modern covered swimming pool was built. In good weather, the roof can be opened to create an outdoor pool. Since 2009, the Kriekeput pavilion has served as the Recreational Gate of the Maashorst in Herpen. It functions as an information point for the Maashorst nature reserve, with an information wall and a digital info kiosk. It is also a starting point for beautiful walking and cycling routes. Feel free to visit Restaurant De Kriekeput in Herpen to experience what we mean by “Pure Brabant Enjoyment.”
