Your cycle route starts at Camping De Koeksebelt. You immediately dive into Het Laer. In Boswachterij Ommen you drive right through the vast greenery. How wonderful it is to make kilometers here in the woods and between the grasslands! In hamlets such as Junne and Beerze, time seems to have stood still: you see old thatched Saxon farms and ash trees. Afterwards you can enjoy the views of the beautiful Engbertsdijksvenen. The high moors at Vroomshoop and Geerdijk were reclaimed from the middle of the nineteenth century because the Twente textile industry needed peat as a cheap fuel. Around junction 88 you drive through the Earl Achterbroek, an ancient landscape of hay meadows, hedgerows and bushes. Especially in the summer a picture, with the beautiful flowers in the fields.

Landgoed het Laer


7731 AV Ommen

There is an old manor on this estate. It is unknown when the house was built exactly, but it was first mentioned in 1382. This building was nothing more than a refined farmhouse with a special gentleman's room for the owner. In 1742 Johan Lodewijk bought the farm together with his wife and had the manor renovated in a classical style. He also had an impressive park built with a long driveway at the front and a grand canal. In 1850 the house was rebuilt and expanded in neoclassical style. The current country house was the result of this. In 1932 the house was bought by the municipality of Ommen, which has preserved the cultural-historical monument. A few years ago, the country house was completely renovated in style and transformed into the fairytale location it is today. On the wooded estate you will find a special semi-circular garden arbor, an ice cellar, an orangery and a pigeon tower.
