Walking around Borne

Your walk starts with a cup of coffee at Grand Café De Steeg in Borne. Then you walk out of the town via a beautiful route, along the Weideplas. This flows into the meandering Bornsebeek that makes its way through the Twente landscape. Despite the proximity of the city, you will experience the typical Twente silence here. There are many traditional farms in the countryside, where sheep and cows graze contentedly on the meadows. Agriculture was practiced at Park Wildyck for centuries, a beautiful area between Oud Borne and the farmland. New houses are being built here, but embedded in a landscape park with the preservation of existing farms and plantings. Back in Borne you will see unique houses at Koppelsbrink 32-34. They date from 1786.
