Nederland – Epe/Heerde, Renderklippen

Renderklippen is a nature reserve, which is characterised by vast stretches of moorland that lie on moraines. These moraines were created during the last ice age. Archaeological excavations have shown that the area was already inhabited as early as 700 BC.

There are several vantage points ranging in height from 25 to 30 metres throughout the undulating landscape, where one can enjoy breathtaking vistas. Because the Renderklippen nature reserve is located far from major cities, it is one of the few places in the Netherlands where it can still be really dark at night.

Especially at the end of the summer, when the heather is in bloom, the Renderklippen is transformed into a landscape more purple than purple. For me, it is one of the most beautiful heather landscapes in the Netherlands

Heerde: Pluizenmeer or Pluizenmeertje. It is named after 'veenpluis' (common cottongrass), which is growing along this little lake. In the older days it was used for washing the sheep from nearby 'Renderklippen'.
