Camping Hub Resorts Drentse Weelde

A stay at HUB Resorts Drentse Weelde is extra nice on warm days because of the fun swimming spots nearby. About 3 kilometres away is the Blue Lake, a popular spot where clear water, a sandy beach and green surroundings combine for a wonderful afternoon outdoors. While you find a spot in the sun, your children enthusiastically run towards the water to splash, play and build sandcastles. Bosbad Appelscha is also within short driving distance and provides plenty of water fun with slides, a water playground and sunbathing meadows where you can completely unwind. That makes this area so attractive: you can effortlessly combine long walks or bike rides through the forest with a refreshing dip.

Who chooses HUB Resorts Drentse Weelde in Hoogersmilde, chooses a camping holiday in which peace and togetherness are central. Families start the day here at their own pace, with the fresh forest air already immediately around them. The small-scale set-up ensures a relaxed atmosphere where you do not have to run from place to place, but rather enjoy overview, space and convenience. Getting something for breakfast or lunch is easy, after which the rest of the day almost automatically fills with being outside. The woods next to the park are a constant draw: a short walk in between, a quick bike ride at the end of the afternoon or exploring nature together before the evening begins. Just that free feeling suits this place so well. After an outing in the region, it is wonderful to return to a park where no busy programme sets the tone, but where you mainly enjoy time together.

The Drents-Friese Wold is right next to the park and is one of the largest contiguous forest areas in the Netherlands. Here you can walk or cycle straight into a setting of forests, sand drifts and heaths. Extra fun with children is the 2.5-kilometre 'Belevingspad', where assignments and play elements turn an ordinary walk into a real adventure. National Park Dwingelderveld is also nearby and surprises with vast heathlands, quiet fens and the chance to encounter a flock of sheep. Fancy a day in the city? Assen is about 17 kilometres away and provides a nice change of pace with stores, terraces and the Drents Museum, where children up to 18 years old can enter for free. For families who like a little extra action, Appelscha is a short drive away. There, amusement park Duinen Zathe and Klimbos Appelscha provide a day full of energy, climbing routes and fun. So you effortlessly alternate forest walks, swimming, culture and adventurous outings without having to drive far. That's what makes this destination so pleasant: everything is within reach, while the quiet of nature remains close at all times.
