Wat kun je verwachten?

No matter who you ask, people who live, work and live in the Grain Republic start shining their eyes when you ask what makes the Grain Republic so special. The people love their region, are proud of it and are very happy to convey that to visitors and guests.

You could almost describe the Grain Republic as a region as picturesque. The way the Grain Republic colours through the seasons, there is no other area in our country. In spring, the cornfields turn a fresh green colour, alongside the bright yellow rapeseed fields and the cheerful splash of colour of the bulb fields. With a little breeze, the fields look like a slightly wavy carpet of colour. In summer, the grain sways long and in all shades of golden yellow in the wind. Just before harvesting, you can hear the grain; it crackles, crackles lightly.

The farms with their front houses like palaces, and the winding gardens show you that this region was the richest part of the Netherlands in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Holland's gold grew in the ground here then. That was back in the day. The situation has changed quite a bit. During the route, you'll hear all about that.

Of course, the route also passes by the Dollard, part of the UNESCO Wadden Sea Heritage Site.

Along the way, there are plenty of moments to get out to see more, and for short walks.

Coffee/tea and a treat will be served at the start location. For lunch, a spot will be reserved at one of the catering outlets along the way.

Day package in the Grain Republic

On the date you booked, drive to the route's start location 'Grain Republic', in Oostwold.

You will be welcomed at the historic Oldambt farmhouse Huninga's Heem. The farm is beautifully situated by the Oldambt Lake.

Before you start the route, you can enjoy coffee/tea and a delicacy. If the owner is present and has time, feel free to ask her about the history of the farm. She also knows all the ins and outs of the entire region.

When confirming the route, you will receive the address where lunch is planned that day.

Soon after the start, you drive past Oostwold airfield. Always fun to linger for a moment as planes take off or land.

The route takes you past one of the first farms of the Oldambt farm type, with a fine merchant's house next to it. Further along the route, you will come across many more such splendours.

From the land formerly reclaimed from the Dollard, you leave the expanding industry of Delfzijl behind, and drive into the atmospheric Termunterzijl. A walk through the village is almost a must. A little further on is Termunten, with what was once a mighty large church, the Ursuskerk.

Driving along the Dollard is a unique experience. Be sure to get off at Fiemel and at the visitor centre.

You will get more tips to get out, stretch your legs and have a look around. If only to find answers to the questions.

You will also be given tips on where to have a drink along the way.

Would you like to end your day with a bite to eat and a drink? At the Oldambtmeer, at Paviljoen Flonk, you can do just that.
