Access

The Grolloo and Schoonloo forests are located south of the city of Assen near the village of Grolloo. You can park on the west side of the area. Press P on the map for directions to the parking lot. Both major walks indicated on the map start from there and sometimes go over wooden boardwalks. You can easily shorten these two long walks (both more than 10 km long) to a shorter walk yourself.
