Director's Villas in Veenhuizen

Highlight • Historical Site

Veenhuizen is a special place. It housed three prisons and has only been open to the public since 1981. Nowhere is the zeitgeist more beautiful than through the texts on the villas of the prison management.

Pûpedobbe Pingo Ruin

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Pûpedobbe is a pingo ruin.

What is a Pingo Ruin?

When the climate warms, for example at the end of an ice age, a pingo is left with a circular lake or crater called a pingo ruin. Many pengo ruins are slowly filled with peat after the ice melts. This filling can take many thousands of years. Because a lot of pollen and seeds of plants end up in the water in pingo ruins, information about the vegetation is stored in the peat. This information can be used to reconstruct the climate that prevailed during the backfill. For this reason, pingo ruins are very popular with Quaternary geologists as climate archives. Pingo ruins can be dated using, for example, tephrochronology (based on volcanic ash found in the deposit). (Source: Wikipedia).

Beakendijk Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Worst bike path in the Netherlands. Because of all the asphalt that has been pushed up, you do need a mountain bike here.

Freulevijver

Highlight • Lake

The freu pond is an old pingo ruin, bordered by birch, beech and mountain ash. The estate was built around 1880 by the Lycklama à Nijeholt family for wood production and the pond was part of the private park. The damsel enlarged the pond around 1900 and had a tea dome built so that her family and guests could linger there as well as boating.
