Holiday apartment in Nijverdal: Nature, family experiences and history

Nijverdal lies at the foot of the Sallandse Heuvelrug, combining natural experiences with special destinations for excursions. The Sallandse Heuvelrug can be reached on foot from Nijverdal. The Buitencentrum Sallandse Heuvelrug can also be reached by public transport via Nijverdal NS railway station and with Syntus. This allows you to combine different holiday ideas when choosing your holiday apartment in Nijverdal, without limiting the town to just one way of travelling.

Nature and exercise on the Sallandse Heuvelrug

The Buitencentrum Sallandse Heuvelrug is a starting point for an excursion onto the Sallandse Heuvelrug. This provides a specific point of reference if you would like to begin your stay in Nijverdal with a day in the countryside. The combination of the town and the accessible Heuvelrug makes Nijverdal particularly appealing to travellers who see their holiday apartment as a base for peaceful moments in nature and active pursuits.

Experience the starry sky and outer space

A completely different experience awaits you at Sterrenwacht Hellendoorn. From the south-facing Sky-walk observation platform, visitors can observe the starry sky with the naked eye or with binoculars. The planetarium at Sterrenwacht Hellendoorn also presents an approximately half-hour journey through the universe. These two offerings appeal to different interests: looking up at the sky outdoors or exploring outer space in a presentation specially designed for that purpose.

Playful excursions for families

Speelbos Sallandse Heuvelrug offers opportunities for climbing, scrambling and swinging. In addition, the Speelbos has a play route featuring the squirrel Jonas and his younger brother Joep. Families can plan an excursion that combines physical activity with a playful narrative concept. The route and the various play options give the outing a clear focus, without limiting experiences in nature to simply going for a walk.

Discover Nijverdal's history

The Memory Vrijheidsmuseum in Nijverdal presents the Second World War through stories, special objects and interactive presentations. The museum focuses on national and regional events, with particular emphasis on the wartime history of Overijssel and Nijverdal. This allows you to combine an excursion to Nijverdal with a more in-depth exploration of regional history.

For children aged 6 to 12, the Memory Vrijheidsmuseum offers an interactive Kistjesroute. Another way to combine history with physical activity is the Vrijheidswandeling Nijverdal: it starts at Nijverdal railway station and includes a visit to the Memory Vrijheidsmuseum. The walk conveys the story of the liberation in the Sallandse Heuvelrug and Twents Reggedal areas. The Sallandse Heuvelrug also has many remnants that commemorate the war and the liberation.

Choose the right holiday apartment in Nijverdal

Which holiday apartment in Nijverdal is right for your holiday can therefore be determined well by the experiences you are looking for. If the Sallandse Heuvelrug is the main focus, the Buitencentrum and the countryside within walking distance provide clear points of reference. Families can include the Speelbos with its play options and the Kistjesroute in their plans. Those interested in history will find two connected themes in the Memory Vrijheidsmuseum and the Vrijheidswandeling. For a varied stay, Sterrenwacht Hellendoorn and its planetarium add astronomy to the range of activities.
