Terhorsterzand Lake

Highlight • Lake

Nice place to rest for a while. You have a nice view over the water. Don't forget the other side of the bike path! Here you will see a lot of greenery and if you are lucky, some fauna!

The Terhorsterzand is approximately 181 hectares and is located south of Beilen. It is a drifting sand area that has been partly "fixed" because pine trees were planted there in 1900. Most of the hilly terrain (100 hectares) consists of heathland, alternating with fens in the lower parts and juniper thickets on the higher parts.

Dwingelderveld National Park

Highlight • Forest

Welcome to the Dwingelderveld National Park! Did you know that this is the largest contiguous wet heathland area in Western Europe? It is actively maintained by no fewer than two flocks of sheep, who ensure that unwanted trees and grasses do not have a chance on the heath.

Here, wet heathlands alternate with drier sandy ridges, resulting in a rich variety of plants and animals. In the moist parts, heath, peaty feathers and bell gentian grow, while the drier areas are dotted with common heather and mouse's ear. The humid zones are partly dependent on bubbling groundwater, where the yellow ashy and small lily thrive. It is home to numerous bird species, of which the stonechat, curlew and woodlark are just a few examples of the dozens of species that find their breeding grounds here in the extensive heathland.
