Hiking

Around the Red Beech, three granite benches are placed in a circle. On each bench, three lines of the poem The Red Beech by Rutger Kopland (1934-2012) are placed. He wrote that poem in 2007 for Apeldoorn as an ode to the red beech. It later became the first poem in his book of poems ‘When I saw this’. The beech and the benches are the result of a poetry project from 2009 initiated by Karla de Boer of the Phidias Foundation.
