Description

The Reestdal is a beautiful and mysterious piece of nature on the border between Overijssel and Drenthe. The Reest river meanders its way through this region where flowery meadows, old hedgerows, ash trees, heathlands and forests alternate. This route is definitely worth exploring.

Like an open-air museum
In the Reestdal it feels as if time has stood still. You can experience farm life on authentic farms among the meadows, fields, heaths and forests. You will find small-scale landscapes such as Oud-Avereest and IJhorst-De Wijk. Impressive estates including De Havixhorst and Dickninge complete the picture. Here your thoughts wander to times long past and you experience pure peace and space.

The Reest and the Reestdal
The Reestdal area owes its name to the river'De Reest\\\'. The Reest meanders its way through the region and largely forms the border between the provinces of Overijssel and Drenthe. In the middle of the meadows, fields, heathlands and forests there are many special plants and animals such as heathland sheep, Scottish Highlanders and storks. Do you want to know more about nature? Then visit De Wheem Visitor Center. Furthermore, you cycle just outside Balkbrug past the Reestkerk from 1852.
