Heart of Twente and Dinkelland
Cycling through a tranquil, scenic landscape with ancient Saxon farmhouses, old hedgerows, beautiful stream valleys, dense forests, and winding country lanes.
The Landscape
In the heart of Twente, a beautiful bocage landscape unfolds, a living tapestry shaped by the ever-changing interplay of natural elements. Ancient hedgerows and hedges act like stage wings, dividing the land into intimate, picturesque scenes. This enchanting region is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering countless paths to walk, cycle, and immerse yourself in the quiet charm of the countryside.
Along winding country lanes, you can feel the peaceful rhythm of nature. You breathe in the fresh air, hear the cheerful song of birds and the soothing murmur of gentle brooks. The countryside opens up before you in green meadows where cows graze calmly, and in fields where wheat, maize, and potatoes slowly ripen under the sun. But the landscape offers more than just serenity. Picturesque farmhouses with thatched roofs and distinctive façades lend the bocage landscape its unique charm. These farms are not only a delight to behold but also a living testament to the rich history and agricultural traditions that make this region so special.
