Beleefweek Sallandse Heuvelrug en Twents Reggedal
Wat is er te doen tijdens de Beleefweek?
Ga mee met één van de paddenstoelenexcursies, fiets een ontdekkingstocht met lekkers uit de streek, ga op boerderijexpeditie of ga op zoek naar de schaapskudde. Dit is maar een kleine greep uit alle activiteiten die worden georganiseerd. Voor kinderen zijn er allerlei leuke doe activiteiten zoals survivallen, een workshop dieren tekenen of een kijkje nemen op de boerderij. Als volwassene kun je je handen uit de mouwen steken en de boswachter helpen. Wil je het wat rustiger aan doen dan neemt de boswachter je graag mee voor een wandeling in het gebied. En als je echt wilt onthaasten kun je bosbaden.
