From here your adventurous trip on the Roekpad starts. Before you set off, enjoy an English-style cup of tea at the nearby tea house. Are you ready for it? Then follow Loek de Rook over the path. Loek will teach you everything about the nature you encounter along the way. You do that by listening, feeling, smelling, looking closely and even tasting! The route is also fun to walk for children with a visual impairment, for them there are signs in Braille along the way.

Hiking

In Echten, the experience path is the rook path. The Roekpad runs through the Kraaienbosch and parking is possible near Visio Echten. All 5 senses are central during this walk: hearing, smelling, tasting, feeling and seeing. Loek de Roek shows you the way during this walk of about 1 kilometer.
