The Landscape

When you wander around the vast nature reserves in South Twente, you lose your sense of time. Here you still experience the peace and space of the natural landscape from the past. Swaying old sandy roads, oaks avenues, vast moors, swamp forests, rugged grasslands, marshy moors, idyllic fens and numerous streams constantly alternate. But also cultural-historical there is something to enjoy: centuries-old water wheel mills, a sconce from the Eighty Years' War, a historic irrigation system and a beautiful countryside with old farms, hedgerows, coppice groves and rolling fields surrounded by borders filled with flowers and herbs.
