Starting from the peat-extraction village of Veenhuizen, you walk into the Fochteloërveen with a guide - one of the last raised bog areas in Western Europe. Along the way, traces of a grim past come to light, as well as the question of why this fragile natural area captures the imagination so powerfully and how it has managed to survive.
