This Nature House is the location on a dead-end road near nature reserve Appèlbergen, with beautiful hiking, biking and horseback riding routes. Located directly on the Pieterpad and the Hunenweg. The farm was built early last century and surrounded by over 5 ha of open private nature reserve (entrance between #3 and #5). Since the beginning of this century this has been classified under the Nature Conservation Act and the trees, thickets, pools, hedges and girdles, are managed sustainably. The estate forms an ecological connecting zone between natural areas in the area and is located on a former peat bog, the Langakker moor. Flanked on the east side by the historic cart track, or 'medieval highway' the Hoge Hereweg at Glimmen, part of the Unesco Global Geopark the Hondsrug. At the end of the Dalweg you can only continue on foot via the Tranendal (shell path) over the Onner Es or through nature reserve Appèlbergen. The railroad is 250 mtr and airport Eelde about 4 km, so besides birds you can also spot airplanes.
