Discover Steenwijk in Overijssel
We are located at the top of Overijssel, on the outskirts of the tourist destination Steenwijk. The town itself is characterised by its beautiful architecture, shops and cafes. Steenwijk also has its fair share of attractive nature reserves, like the Weerribben-Wieden National Park and the Drents-Friese Forest. Both of these offer almost endless opportunities for exploring on foot or in the saddle. Or a short distance away, you can find unique Giethoorn with its many bridges, waterways and punts.
