Heikant is a hamlet in the Dutch province of North Brabant. It is a part of the municipality of Baarle-Nassau, and lies about 16 km south of Breda, just south of the village of Ulicoten.[1]

This Heikant (the name means "heath edge") should not be confused with the other village of the same name lying 8 km to the east and also in Baarle-Nassau, or with any of the dozens of other Heikants in the Netherlands and Belgium.
