Hiking

Have you always wanted to reach the ceiling of beautiful Overijssel? Then this is your chance. In a circular walk of more than 10 kilometers you climb the Tankenberg of no less than 85.1 meters high. You will also encounter many highlights along the way.

The walk starts in the idyllic village of De Lutte and first takes you in the footsteps of the Catholic processions. Just like they did in the old days, today you too will stop at the Lourdes caves that served as a resting place at the time. Haven't you relaxed enough yet? At the pulpit, 2 kilometers away, you will also find a wonderful place to reflect or to have a picnic. Here you will find a nice seat with a beautiful view over the vast meadows. Enjoy the flat land for a while, because the climb to the Tankenberg is about to begin!

Put those calves to work while you conquer the altimeters. Tired? Just keep going, your effort will be rewarded at the top. The most beautiful views are waiting for you here, which even reach as far as Germany in clear weather! Take some time to catch your breath and take in the beauty before descending to the lower Paaschberg. It may not match the 85 meter high Tankenberg, but from 25 meters you still have a breathtaking view of the Twente landscape.

After taking in the fresh air, you head back downhill to De Lutte. Here you will find attractive places for a snack and a drink. For the road you take enough food and drinks with you in your backpack.

The tour starts and ends in De Lutte, where there are enough parking spaces for the car. The route can also be reached by public transport. In that case, take the bus to stop R.K. Church in De Lutte.

Lourdes Grotto, De Lutte

Highlight • Religious Site

In the past, processions took place in De Lutte on Catholic holidays in the so-called church forest. There were chapels at various places along the path to rest and later the Lourdes caves were also built for this purpose.

Viewpoint De Preekstoel

Highlight • Viewpoint

When the Palthe family built their country house in De Lutte, the sand that was released formed a "mountain". This mountain was called 'The Pulpit', in reference to their ancestor who was a minister: Johannes Palthe. From De Preekstoel you had (and still have) a beautiful view of the surroundings. It used to be a popular meeting place where the latest news was exchanged.

Egheria Tea House on Tankenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

With a height of 85.1 meters, the Tankberg is the highest mountain in Overijssel. It is a mountain about which many legends and legends exist. For example, a temple would have stood here at the beginning of the era. But this remains guessing, because we don't know for sure. What we do know for sure is that there is a dome on the top today. This may be less old than the enigmatic temple, but it is also more than 180 years old. It was built in 1840.

In clear weather you can see Germany from the Tankenberg, so keep your eyes open!

View from Paaschberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the Paaschberg you have a great view over Twente. You can enjoy this view from the bench. In peace, because there are generally fewer people here than to the nearby Tankenberg. It is, incidentally, a lot lower: about 25 meters high.

Beautiful route through rural and wooded areas.
Some places are still quite boggy, so don't wear white sneakers 🙃
Many mountain bikers on the hiking trails, even where it is not allowed (what should we hikers do on the mountain bike trails)
It is best to walk this route early in the morning.
