Discover the Wezepse Heide in the Veluwe

The esdorp Wezep, which lies on the edge of the Veluwe, is best known for the military barracks located in the wooded area. The Wezepse Heide is situated around this area, an area that will amaze you with the silence and tranquility that can be found there. The Wezepse Heide is approximately 225 hectares. The landscape consists of coarse pine forests and small groups of deciduous trees that alternate the heaths. Here you can wander between the heather, heather and crowhei. Many dog owners let their dogs run free here and walkers also often explore the area off the trails to view the many nest boxes where different types of bird pairs breed. The Wezepse Heide used to be an area where water was extracted. Water company VITENS now manages the Wezepse Hei. They regularly let Scottish Highlanders graze the heather, but also mow it regularly.
