Join an excursion with the National Park Utrechtse Heuvelrug

Can you actually smell a forest? How does a woodpecker make so much noise? Where does the water go after it’s rained? There are loads of clever questions to ask about the nature and landscape of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug. Fortunately, there are also plenty of nature guides who’ll be happy to answer these and any other questions you might have. Will you join them on a journey of discovery? Learn together to look at your surroundings in a different way, so that from now on you’ll discover even more.

During the Discovery Weekend, children aged 6 to 12 can join their families on a discovery tour led by a guide from Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park. On this brand-new excursion, you’ll set off from the Discovery Centre in Rhenen and discover the most fascinating stories of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug.

The excursion lasts approximately 1½ hours. Along the way, you’ll explore all sorts of topics from the Discovery Centre, but you’ll also discover special things that can only be found outdoors. And of course, we won’t just be listening to the guide’s stories: there’ll be plenty of fun hands-on and discovery activities to keep you engaged throughout.
