Holidays in Ruinen

Your last vacay feel like it was centuries ago? No dramas — book a ticket to Ruinen and you'll be away in a flash!

It sits 110 kilometres northeast of Amsterdam, the capital of Netherlands.

Does soaking up ocean views sound enticing? Take the family to Nes Beach or Hollum Beach.

Escape on a trip to some surrounding natural sights. 25 kilometres out of Ruinen, National Park De Weerribben is just waiting to be explored. Sallandse Heuvelrug National Park Hellendoorn Entrance, 40 kilometres away, is another excellent place to immerse yourself in nature.

If you can't imagine a getaway that doesn't involve sports, check what events are scheduled at De Boshoek. It's likely something will be on while you visit. You'll find the venue 25 kilometres away in Hardenberg.

Head on over and soak up the atmosphere at Dwingelderveld.

The Hunebed D53 and the Hunebed D54 bij Havelte are quite close to the middle of Ansen, 3 kilometres to the northwest. Eager for more? Uffelte, 6 kilometres to the northwest of Ruinen, is proud to offer the Hunebed D52 and the Havelte Golfclub.

The De Oude Aarde, Villa Rams Woerthe and Church of Sint-Clemenskerk are all quite close to 't Klooster, 17 kilometres to the west. Need a few more reasons to stop by? The Rabo Theater De Meenthe and the Giethoorn 't Olde Maat Uus Museum are not far away either.

Your eyes shouldn't have all the fun while visiting Drenthe. Give your taste buds a little attention as well by sampling the local food and drink. After all, you can't say you've really experienced a destination until you've tasted its flavours.

While you're in Ruinen, why not eat like a local? That means sitting down to a meal of erwtensoep (pea soup) or hutspot, two of the region's classic recipes.

You might be eating your way into elastic-waisted trousers, but rijstepap (rice pudding) is worth every last calorie. This favourite dessert will make your taste buds tingle at the very sight of it.

Beerenburg is what the locals have when the night nods for something with more kick. Ask your bartender for a little taste and see if it turns on your taste buds.

Your time spent in the Drenthe region is certain to be more fun if you take the time to memorise a few of the local phrases and expressions. First off the bat, have a go at saying 'Lang niet gezien'. It means 'long time no see'. 'Ik heet ...' ('my name is..') is another one you may need.

Don't forget to put the 26th of April in your calendar. To the locals, this means just one thing — King's Day. A notable day of celebrations, this is a great time of year to travel to the country.

Like all good things, your time here must eventually come to an end. When it's finally time to head off, say a last "Dag" and spend your remaining holiday allowance on some keepsakes to take home.

Making it to your flight on time can be a stressful experience. However, it won't be too much of a struggle if you've made a plan. The closest terminal, Muenster - Osnabrueck International Airport (FMO), is 110 kilometres to the southeast.
