Discover De Lutte: Holiday Apartment in De Lutte Between Nature and Culture

De Lutte Between Local Landmarks, Wooden Shoes and Landscape

De Lutte is a place for days when landscape, local landmarks and history stand side by side. The Hellehond is the emblem and symbol of De Lutte. The Plechelmus Church in De Lutte was built in 1932 on the foundations of the former Waterstaat Church from 1831. You can also experience wooden-shoe making: after the film, you can walk through the museum and view machines that were formerly and are still used to make wooden shoes today. When choosing a holiday apartment in De Lutte, this combination is an initial indication of whether you would like to shape your stay more around cultural history or active pursuits.

Holiday Apartment in De Lutte for Routes at Different Paces

The Tankenberg trail run leads over the 85.1-metre-high Tankenberg, the highest hill in the province of Overijssel, and is also suitable as a hiking route. It starts at Hotel 't Kruisselt, Kruisseltlaan 3, 7587 NM De Lutte; you can park bicycles and cars there. As the route leads close to Oldenzaal railway station, it can also be started there. The route therefore has two possible starting points.

Poort Bulten Arboretum with Clear Trail Guidance

The Arboretum Poort Bulten circular route offers a different kind of orientation. It runs along partly paved paths, is suitable for wheelchair users as well as walkers with walking frames or pushchairs, and is marked with yellow arrows. The Poort Bulten Arboretum contains 2,500 trees and shrubs from around the world, comprising 1,000 species. For a shared walk with a pushchair or for slower stages, these specific trail features are particularly relevant when planning your day.

Watercourse and Flora in Lutterzand

In Lutterzand, the Stuifzand route reveals another side of the landscape. It follows the Dinkel's natural, meandering course. The outer bends have steep banks, while the inner bends feature the river-valley meadows of the Groene Staart with distinctive flora. If changing landscapes are important to you when choosing accommodation, you can plan a route here with clearly recognisable terrain and plant features.

Routes for Shorter and Longer Excursions

The Sagenroute is another hiking option. It is 9.2 kilometres long and starts at the Tourist Info De Lutte on Plechelmusstraat. There, the Tourist Info provides route maps, cycling, hiking and driving routes, as well as selling and putting together packages. The approximately 40-kilometre Boergondische fietstocht adds a longer cycling option; it offers insights into the rural surroundings of De Lutte and Losser. The different route lengths help you adapt your day plan to your preferred activity.

The Right Base for Your Stay

When choosing a holiday apartment in De Lutte, you can weigh up a cultural experience, a marked walking route, a hike over the Tankenberg, a route along the Dinkel or a longer cycling tour.
