People are crazy about cycling in our area, which is why they created many cycling routes. There is an extensive cycling junction network across the Veluwe and along the IJssel which most of the cycling routes use.

A number of different routes are available at the Tourist Information Points (TIP) and in the web shop of Visit Heerde. 

Nature is one of the most beautiful playgrounds for children. What child does not want to climb trees, build a hut in the forest or get dirty in the mud? You really don't need game computers, tablets or televisions to entertain your children. Of course, they can go crazy here at 't Lennepserf, but did you know there is a special nature play area for children in Veessen too? The Beleefplekke is freely accessible 24/7 for children and adults who want to play outside and climb around.

The Beleefplekke

The Beleefplekke is a green playground in Veessen where you are allowed to get dirty, discover the natural elements and where you can learn about sustainability and nature. Among other activities, you can climb, clamber, slide, crawl through 'tunnels', picnic, catch tadpoles, jump in the mud and 'swim'. Events are frequently organized too, such as 'Mud Day' and a 'Mud Run'. Keep an eye on the Beleefplekke's Facebook page for fun activities you could enjoy during your holiday in (the area of) Veessen. Here you will find the contact details and the route to go there.

The Eetwinkel 

At the Eetwinkel of Jobse & Jobse, you can taste the flavor of Heerde in the things you eat. From farmer to plate, without any fuss. Everything prepared with the seasons. Straight from the land. 
 

Brasserie Floor in the woods

Brasserie Floor is one of our favorite spots.  Your hike or bicycle tour starts or ends with Floor. Flex workers enjoy their personal away day here on the patio or have a meeting by the crackling fire of the fireplace. Teams from companies and organizations obtain the mix that is necessary to be able to move forward. Or come for no special reason.

Grand Cafe Cornelis, in the former town hall in the center of Epe, is in our top three of bars and restaurants. Cornelis serves high-quality dishes, made out of fair products. The delicious pizzas are recommended!
