National Park Drents-Friese Wold is one of the largest nature reserves in the Netherlands, with over 6,000 hectares of unspoilt nature. The park offers a variety of landscapes, from vast heathlands and sand drifts to dense forests and meandering streams. The area is ideal for hiking and cycling enthusiasts, with numerous marked trails and observation towers. Here you can enjoy nature in silence and perhaps spot rare animals, such as the crane or the black woodpecker.
