Hiking trails

A number of beautiful walking routes over Het Hulsbeek start from the hotel: for instance the Tree Route of 8.9 km or the Nature Path of 3.2 km. Furthermore, we have multi-day walking arrangements whereby we bring the guests to the starting point of the walks. You will then walk stages of 20-25 km of the Twente Path through the most beautiful parts of Twente.

Twentepad

Active Nature Hiking

The north-east of Twente is eminently suitable for a beautiful walk. The Twente path shows all facets of this part of Twente: country estates, country estates, nature reserves, old farming land, signs of old cultures and former activities. If you book one of our walking package deals, you can enjoy this beautiful route and then rest with us in a four-star room surrounded by nature of your choice!

Nature trail (3.5 km)

Active Nature Hiking

The Twente Hiking Network is the most beautiful hiking network in the Netherlands. As you walk along the Nature Trail in Het Hulsbeek, the signs along the way will teach you a lot about the trees, shrubs, and plants you encounter. For example, at the holly sign, you can even read how to take control of your home! The larger signs provide all kinds of information about the forests, the stream, and the church path through the heath. The route is ideal for walking with children—either the entire way or just part of it—and is 3.5 kilometers long in total. The nature trail is marked with signs featuring a red arrow. Both routes start at P2.

Tree route (9km)

Active Nature Hiking

There are no less than 6000 kilometres of walking possibilities in Twente. The Tree Route over Het Hulsbeek is one of them. Walking along the Tree Route, you will find information about many different types of trees and shrubs. You will come across special trees, such as the Borrenbergs oak and the beech avenue dating back to 1895, which is more than 120 years old. At the Toetersdennen, you will also see a striking tree on the former border between the marke and Gammelke and the marke Berghuizen. Nearby is a mark stone. The route is signposted with a purple arrow. The route is no less than 9 kilometres long. Both routes start at P2.
