Day package Westerwolde

Drive to Oudeschans, where the 'Nature paradise between two ramps' route starts.

Of course, before you start, to get a taste of the route's atmosphere, you can take a short circular walk in Oudeschans.

Walk over the old rampart and imagine that Oudeschans used to be close to the Dollard, by the sea. This put Oudeschans in a strategic position. Find out what happened next, in Oudeschans and in the rest of the region, during the route.

Driving through beautiful Westerwolde, you will hear stories about old smuggling routes along the German border and about Wedde Castle.

Along the way, you will get tips for lovely walks, e.g. in the nature of the Ruiten Aa, and for places to have a drink.

You will receive further information on catering establishments and where to have lunch with your booking confirmation.

End your day in the fortress Bourtange, e.g. with a home-brewed Vestingbier.
