You don’t have to explore the forest on your own. The Outdoor Centre organises excursions and other activities throughout the year. You can find details on the website of Staatsbosbeheer, the national forestry organisation that oversees the Netherlands’ green heritage. At the moment this information is only available in Dutch.

Hoewel je op deze wandelroute slechts een klein deel van het Drents-Friese Wold te zien krijgt, is het een mooie kennismaking met één van de grootste aaneengesloten bosgebieden van ons land.
De Hein Mader Kunstroute is opgedeeld in twee routes. De 1e route gaat naar Oldeberkoop en terug.
De 2e route gaat via het Fochteloërveen richting Haule en via Makkinga/Oosterwolde terug.
Appelscha is voor beide het startpunt.
