Unique and surprising

Weerribbenhome is located in the Weerribben-Wieden National Park, a beautiful water-rich area with canals, lakes, reed beds, swamp forests, and quaking bogs. It is an ideal holiday destination for water sports enthusiasts and nature lovers. You can bring your own canoe, stand-up paddleboard, or rowboat and easily access the water from our platform.

Located in the rural area without direct neighbors, in a unique location between the Giethoornsemeer and Kalenberg at the edge of the Weerribben-Wieden National Park. From the apartment, you can step right onto the cycling and walking routes. Let yourself be surprised by the diverse landscape, birds, butterflies, dragonflies, and perhaps even an "Otter." It is also a unique area for bird lovers, with several birdwatching huts.
