Besthmenerberg walk

South of Ommen you will take a varied walk through a quiet region. First you walk on a car-free road to Besthmen. You pass some beautiful old thatched farms. Then you walk up the Besthmenerberg: a 34-metre high moraine. You walk through a heathland to a lookout tower that offers you a beautiful panorama of the area. Through the woods you walk to a monument for Camp Erika. This penal camp was located here from 1942 until the end of the Second World War. Further on you pass the Besthmenermolen, a corn mill from 1862. The last part of the route you walk on an unpaved path through a wonderfully quiet deciduous forest. Back at't Laarbos Pannenkoeken & Meer you can enjoy a drink and a delicious meal.
