Holiday park De Witte Berg

Vakantiepark De Witte Berg is a family-oriented forest park located on the Wittebergweg in Oud Ootmarsum, Overijssel, directly adjacent to nature reserve Het Springendal. The park lies a short distance from the small art town of Ootmarsum.

Accommodation at De Witte Berg

The park offers several types of self-catering accommodation, all designed for groups of six: Wood Cottages, Wood Cottages with a hot tub, tentvillas, bungalows in two variants (Dennenlust and Eikenlust), and a boslodge. For larger parties, the Heerdink Hoeve is available as a group accommodation sleeping up to twenty people. Alongside these units, the park also has camping pitches.

Facilities on the grounds

The water facilities at De Witte Berg are extensive. There is an outdoor swimming pool with a sliding roof and a separate children's pool, a natural swimming pond with a slide, and a water playground. For indoor activities, the park has a covered playground, around ten outdoor playgrounds, a bowling lane, and a fishing pond. A restaurant called Bie Heintje with a terrace, a park shop, bicycle hire, electric car charging points, and an animation team during school holidays complete the offering.

What to do around Ootmarsum

Ootmarsum itself is a compact historic town known for its galleries, ateliers, and cultural events, making it a draw for visitors with an interest in visual arts. The adjacent nature reserve Het Springendal offers walking routes through typical Twente countryside, with streams, slopes, and woodland. The wider Twente region has a well-developed network of cycling and walking paths, and the rolling landscape here is among the more varied in the eastern Netherlands. The nearby town of Denekamp and the Singraven estate are also worth a visit for those wanting to explore the area further.

Getting to De Witte Berg

The park is situated near Ootmarsum in the northeast of Overijssel, with Almelo and Enschede being the closest larger cities providing rail connections and main road access.

Who the park suits

De Witte Berg is a practical choice for families with young children, given the range of water play and playground facilities on site. The Heerdink Hoeve also makes it a workable option for larger family groups or other parties looking for a single group accommodation in a natural setting.
