Round of Vlagtwedde and the Diamonds Aa

Enjoy the nature of the Diamonds Aa! This beautiful area in the tranquil Groningen Westerwolde is worth exploring. This route starts at De Sultan in Vlagtwedde. Flagtwedde used to be the capital of the municipality of the same name to which Ter Apel and Bourtange also belong, but now it is Sellingen. Judgment was already in progress in the village before 1200. You will find a beautiful old church there (just into Kerkstraat). Then you walk in the fields and forests managed by Natuurmonumenten in Westerwolde in Groningen. In the valley of the Ruiten Aa, an invigorating silence reigns on the grain-covered ash trees and grasslands bordered with woods. In spring the stream valley turns yellow because of the many marshmallows, a beautiful sight!
