Circular walking route of 5 km in National Park De Meinweg along the Rolvennen and the Paardengat
National Park De Meinweg is a unique terraced landscape on the border of the Netherlands and Germany. Three fractures divide De Meinweg National Park into four different terraces. Water rises to the surface at the base of the fractures. In addition to the terraces, De Meinweg consists of rolling heaths, streams, marshes and forests. The Paardengat route is a marked walk that leads across heaths, along the fens of Rolvennen and along the Paardengat. A circular walk that nicely shows the variation of De Meinweg National Park. Birds you may encounter along the way include Corcodel mic, Ciocănitoare neagră, Mărăcinar negru, Codroș de pădure, Ciocârlie de pădure, Fâsă de pădure and Silvie de câmp.

The converted farm Gitstapper Hof near the village of Etsberg is an ideal place to spend the night near De Meinweg National Park. The farm used to supply the adjacent Gitstapper water mill with wheat for milling. The farm has recently been completely renovated and since this renovation it has been possible to spend the night at this authentic location. Gitstapper Hof is located close to the old water mill and two restaurants, but mainly in a wonderfully quiet area on the fields between the lake Effelderwaldsee and the adjacent forest.
Double room from €75 per night. Offer: for € 45.00 per person you can book a Burgundian breakfast and a delicious 3-course menu in the evening in the adjacent restaurant Aan De Hoeve.
