Foggy atmosphere in Rijen - a photo on Flickriver

            Forestry Dorst is the name of a vast forest area that is located between Rijen, Oosterhout, Teteringen and Dorst. It measures 1,117 hectares and is owned by Staatsbosbeheer. The area consists mainly of coarse pine forest that was planted in the heathland at the beginning of the 19th century. This area was known as Seterse Heide. Around 1850 much forest was cut down again, because the area was used as a military training ground. Sand drifts were created, and the nearby hamlet of Seters even had to be protected from the advancing sand with an oak coppice wall. Staatsbosbeheer acquired the area in 1899. It was replanted and the soldiers moved elsewhere. Recreation As the forests, despite their size, are strongly enclosed by urbanized cores, many recreational visitors come. A well-known recreational area in the forest area was Natuurbad Surae. The open-air swimming pool was located in one of the loam pits and was founded in 1927 by the Breda sports teacher A. Kuyt ("surae" means "calf"). It was taken over by the municipality of Oosterhout in 1976, then decayed and closed in 2006. The terrain, on which quite a few buildings could be found, is given back to nature. The surrounding forests are also made more varied, so that the former one-sided orientation on wood production is broken. The forestry continues to the northeast in the De Duiventoren nature reserve.
