Description
Walk outside Westerbork through an ancient landscape. The penultimate ice age had a lot of influence on the landscape here and formed the Drents Plateau. The farmers settled on these'Drentse Hooglanden\\\' and formed the characteristic Drenthe esdorpen landscape of high-altitude villages with greens and ash (fields), wooded banks and low-lying meadows and haylands in the catchment area of the stream (Westerborkerstroom) .
In the originally medieval esdorp Zwiggelte you can taste the authentic Drenthe atmosphere of yesteryear. The open character of Zwiggelte has largely remained intact. On the southeast side of the village is a remnant of a green with old oaks and beautiful Saxon farmhouses.
The route starts at Hoofdstraat 16 at't Aole Gemientehoes, the former town hall of Westerbork. You can park for free behind the center. It is also possible to pick up the route at other locations using the signage.
