Nature and surroundings

Near Fortmond there are many hiking and biking opportunities. The farm is located in Overijssel, but the Veluwe in Gelderland is within biking distance. The foot/bicycle ferry to Veessen (Kozakkenveer) is around the corner and sails from April 1 to October 1. The information center in Den Nul of Staatsbosbeheer and a watchtower in the Duursche Waarden are within walking distance. So is the Fortmonderbos on which the garden overlooks. Near the information center is a bird-watching hut overlooking the Duursche Waarden. Ospreys, peregrine falcons, buzzards and other birds are often spotted here! Upon arrival we are happy to tell you more about the beautiful surroundings. The information center in Den Nul is also a wonderful location for lunch, information about the wider area, exhibition space, museum. Open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., 7 days a week.
