What to do around Gasselte and the Hondsrug

Gasselte lies at the heart of UNESCO Geopark De Hondsrug, a landscape shaped by glacial activity during the last ice age, giving it a character that is distinct from much of the rest of the Netherlands. The area contains numerous hunebedden, the megalithic dolmens for which Drenthe is well known, and several are within easy reach of the resort. The Hondsrug ridge itself is well suited to cycling and walking, with marked routes passing through heathland, forests, and small farming villages. The nearby Drents-Friese Wold and Drentsche Aa National Park offer further options for nature walks and wildlife observation.

The town of Assen, the provincial capital of Drenthe, is the closest city of any size. It provides access to a range of shops, restaurants, and cultural facilities, including the Drents Museum, which holds a notable collection of prehistoric artefacts.

Getting to Gasselte

Gasselte is straightforward to reach by car via the A28 motorway, which runs through the province and connects Drenthe to the rest of the Netherlands. The nearest railway station with good national connections is Assen.

Who this park suits

Dormio Resort De Hondsrug is well suited to larger groups, extended families, and anyone looking to base themselves in a quiet, nature-oriented part of the Netherlands. Guests travelling with pets will find the park accommodating.
