Renderklippen route

The Renderklippen route connects Heerde, Oene and Epe. Start the Renderklippen route at one of the mentioned junctions (e.g. 62) and follow the arrows with the next junction number (61, 96 etc.) during your bike ride. The route can be cycled in both directions. For more cycling and walking routes, you can go to VVV Heerde, Kerkstraat 1 or VVV Epe, Pastoor Somstraat 6. In Heerde, near junction 94, you will find Oudheidkamer Villa Jacoba. Although this antiquity room is only open for a limited time, admission is free. Near the hamlet of Zuuk, you can visit the museum farm Hagedoorns Plaatse. This Saxon farm from 1715 is furnished in such a way that it seems as if the family that lived and worked here around 1900 has just gone away. And then the Renderklippen, the namesake of this route. The Renderklippen was formed many thousands of years ago by ice, water and finally man. Over the course of two million years, the Rhine and the Meuse deposited countless tons of silt, sand, soil and boulders in the Netherlands. The wind was able to do its thing and moved large quantities of sand over enormous distances. The Renderklippen, which are tens of metres high and offer a magnificent view of the landscape, are still impressive proof of this. The vastness and desolation of this area are particularly impressive in dark winter weather. Hills, sandy paths, lakes and here and there a lonely tree are typical of the area. Deer, roe deer, wild boar and sheep roam around here. The old sheepfold is characteristic of the Renderklippen. The fold provides shelter for around 150 adult sheep.
