DRENTHE PREHISTORICAL GRAVE - HUNEBED - Provincie Drenthe

An undervaluated province

From the motorway Drenthe looks flat, empty and a little boring.
Not!
Just take the little roads and find yourself in old villages born from peat digging or even prehistorical graves called Hunebedden.
There's plenty to do for children (Traffic park in Assen, one of the world's finest zoo's in Emmen and much more).

Have a look at my tips.

I visit often

Printing museum Meppel

Since my best friend lives in Meppel I have spent a lot of time in Drenthe over the last years. Mostly I hardly have time to go out and explore, since there is always so much to chat about and play around with the kiddies.

I've put all the places in Drenthe in the To Do tips here, with a personal recommendation from myself that it's a delightful province with beautiful rural areas.

A nice overview page on the province of Drenthe, which I see goes almost all the way up to Groningen, but not quite. I've been meaning to visit Groningen because it has such a great reputation as a bicycle city.

Still smiling about the "fake art" museum. I would love to see that. A really nice combination of small places close together and convenient to visit. Love the rural environment.
