Walking in the woods
De Werelt hotel in Lunteren is located right in the middle of the Veluwe's extensive woodlands. Here you will find kilometres of walking trails, with the occasional observation tower or wildlife observation post. Are you walking early in the morning or in the evening? Then there is a good chance that a group of deer will suddenly cross the forest path in front of you. If you like a bit of a challenge during your walk, then you should try geocaching. Which walking route in the area will you choose? Just set off and enjoy the tranquillity of nature!
Rise to the challenge of Lunteren's mountain bike route.
Mountain bike enthusiasts take note! In the vicinity of De Werelt, you will find the Lunteren MTB route. A 31.3-kilometre route with a mix of fast single tracks, challenging climbs, steep sections and the Area 51, famous among mountain bikers...

Plan your own cycle tour
Want to explore the area? Then hop on a bike. Hotel De Werelt is located on the ANWB's cycle junction network. You can easily plan your own route using the cycle junction planner. Through the vast Veluwe forests, across the beautiful countryside (tip: many farmers sell local products in stalls or farm shops), towards the floodplains of the Rhine? Anything is possible!
Go for a walk across de Wekeromse Zand
You don't need to go all the way to the sea to find sand dunes... A walk across the Wekeromse Zand is highly recommended. You walk through the forest, across the heath and, of course, the impressive sand drifts. Stroll around on your own or follow the red posts for a beautiful 7.5-kilometre walking route. Along the way, you may see heath cows and salamanders, among other things.
