The Valley of the Black Brook is a 1500 hectare beautiful nature for hiking where various meadow birds stay in the open valley area. The Black brook also wriggles around the witness hills of the Hees and Gennep, remnants of sandbanks when the sea still came this far. In rainy periods, the stream can flood and flood the valley. Departures at the church of Zelem, Dorpstraat 34. Natuurpunt brings walking routes here: blue (3.7 km), Orange (4.7 km) and red (8 km), the GPS walk is the red walk (passing by the Lobos farm) with the connection route from the church (to be followed with a cross). The square at the church is partly fenced off to create a kind of 'one-way traffic'. If the church square is occupied by fairgrounds, you can also park at the end of the Broekstraat just over the bridge on the Zwarte Beek (on the left side).
