Weekend trip

Enjoy nature, unwind in the sauna, or look for unknown pearls in the area, go for a special weekend away and completely relax! During a nice weekend trip, you can of course think of everything. For example, you can stay in a bungalow, tiny house, gypsy wagon, treehouse, or chalet. The possibilities to enjoy a relaxing weekend away are endless!

If you are talking about a special weekend trip, it is actually immediately clear what it means. A relaxing weekend away is of course when you will enjoy yourself in another place. You leave the household chores, daily obligations, and work-related stress behind to relax in a place and in the accommodation of your choice. The various activities that you can do during a nice weekend trip are incredibly extensive. For example, you can have fun with your family, watch birds in nature, get a breath of fresh air on the beach, or visit a city in the area. During a relaxing weekend away, you mainly want to do what you love doing and which you can unwind.

Of course, you do not always have to travel far for a pleasant holiday. A vacation close to home can be exactly what you need. For a shorter stay, it is nice if you do not have to travel too far. Getting up early and sitting in the same position in a car for a long time does not help a good start to a nice weekend away. Often there are special places within driving distance of home where you have never been before. Consider, for example, a nature reserve where you have never walked, a city that you have never visited, or a place where you just love the masses. Are you also ready for relaxation? Then choose your favorite nature house for the perfect weekend trip!

Trees such as birch, beech, oak, and pine represent 65% of the total surface of the national park. The marsh gentian and the bog asphodel are the plants that colour and beautify the place. Toadstools, mossels, and lichens are some other examples of what you can see in this natural landscape. When it comes to fauna, if you are lucky enough, you might spot foxes, badgers, pine martens, and even the “big four”: the wild boars, mouflons, red and roe deers. In De Hoge Veluwe, there is also a suitable habitat for several insects, amphibians, and reptiles. Moreover, if you are passionate about bird watching, then this is the right spot for you.

Melissani Lake Cave, Greece

If you are planning a weekend trip to Greece, you should add the Melissani Lake Cave to your itinerary. The lake cave of Melissani is a magical place situated on the splendid island of Kefalonia. As you arrive there, it will remind you of the children's stories with mermaids. Unfortunately, you won’t see any mermaids but you will be impressed by the turquoise-blue colour of the water and the unique shape of the cave. However, the mythological stories say that the name originates from one of Pan’s nymphs. He was the Greek god of the wild who used that place as a sanctuary, alongside his nymphs. From ancient times we go directly to the 20th century, more exactly in 1951, when the Melissani Cave was rediscovered by the paleontologist Giannis Petrochilos. Nowadays, you can explore this unique geological heritage by boats that go through an underground tunnel. Another interesting fact is that the cave’s lake is 20 meters below the surface.
