Nature, recreation and prehistory, a bit of everything on the Groevenbeekse heide.

Similar to the bench with sheep at the nearby sheepfold, this one is decorated with a red deer mosaic.

Around Ermelo, you'll find several beautiful mosaic benches. Dating back to 1987, they were designed by Esther Suzanne Koppe-Verburg and Anneke Granum-Kamerling. The various benches depict scenes from Ermelo: sheep from the sheepfold, game from the forest, and white peacocks. These are wonderful benches to encounter along the way.

A wonderful place with information about the area, videos of wolves and foxes, and friendly volunteers who explain everything. Fresh coffee and ice cream for sale with a beautiful view.

Round fen situated between forest and heathland, on the northeast side there is a bench.

A path that isn't (yet) on the map and naturally connects two major paths. Note that this means you'll miss the Romans and a bench.
