On the border of Southwest Drenthe and Southeast Friesland, is a special area. The National Park Drents-Friese Wold is one of the largest nature reserves in the Netherlands. In 2000 over 6,000 hectares of woodland, heathland, shifting sands and river valley grasslands designated as a National Park.

It's not just nature: in and around the National Park they are working hard. The many holidaymakers, attracted by the beautiful nature, are welcomed by the many entrepreneurs from throughout the area. It is therefore working hard to strengthen the regional economy by sustainability.
