I think this dolmen (D11) is one of the most beautiful in the Netherlands. This prehistoric burial monument is located at a crossroads in the middle of the forest. It was built in the Neolithic period, around 3400–2750 BC, by farmers of the Funnel Beaker Culture. The almost 10-meter-long and almost 4-meter-wide dolmen is located on the Terborgh estate. It has four capstones resting on ten sidestones and two keystones. The yellow walking route runs past the dolmen and the nearby pinetum. Don't confuse this with the yellow signs of the Hondsrug Trail, as those will take you across the entire Hondsrug into Germany.

Beautiful area for cycling or walking

Along the road to Gasteren and Oude Molen in the Gasterse Duinen lies the remote dolmen. The dolmen itself is no longer intact because some of the stones have been stolen, but it is still worth a visit. Especially in late summer the heather is in full bloom and it is wonderfully relaxing in the middle of the forest. This dolmen is easily accessible, there is a spacious parking lot. It is a freely accessible walking area, you only have to enter it via a cattle grid because a flock of sheep is grazing there.

Recreational lake

Dolmen D11 in Anloo is a dolmen with four covering stones resting on ten side and two keystones and one gate stone. The original fifth capstone and the second gate stone are missing. It's nice that this dolmen is quietly located, and you often have it to yourself to take in peace and quiet.

Hunebed D10 is located north of the village of Gasteren on the edge of the Gasterse Duinen in the Dutch province of Drenthe. It can be reached via hiking trails in the Gasterse Duinen nature reserve.

In the middle of Boswachterij Odoorn there is an open heathland that was created after a heavy storm in 1972. It was then decided not to create a new forest, but to fence it off and allow sheep to graze there to keep it short. On this sheep field, at the edge of the forest, is the landscape temple 'Ode to the Sun'. This megalithic work of art was created in 2000 by Rob Schreefel. It consists of a 25-ton boulder (from Brittany) with a round hole in the middle that gives a special light effect.

Dolmens, that is really a POI in Drenthe.
