De Heemtuin is a green oasis in the East Groningen countryside. A lovely place to walk, have lunch, let the kids romp around and camp.
Take a closer look
Do you love a natural garden, with flowers that insects love and plenty of vegetables, herbs and fruit trees? Then don't miss De Heemtuin in Muntendam. It is a lovely place to wander around and a walhalla for butterflies, dragonflies and other insects. "I often go there to photograph "says visitor Arend Lichtenberg. "There are beautiful flowers and the dragonflies are impressive." The adjacent forest is also a good place for a walk. In autumn, you can find a wide variety of mushrooms here.

Camping in nature
Can't your kids get enough of romping around in nature? Or do you want to unwind yourself? Then book one of the luxuriously furnished safari tents at Camping De Heemtuin. You can hardly get any closer to nature, as the tents overlook Tussen de Venen. This nature reserve looks like it did in prehistoric times. Sheep and goats walk to maintain the area. Small fens are interspersed with grasses and plants such as the wild orchid, sundew or wolf's claw. Here you can get away from it all.
Sympathetic managers
The campsite, gardens and teahouse are run by Werkpro. Here, people gain work experience entirely at their own pace. "People who are out of place somewhere else, need guidance or are very insecure, for example, flourish here!", Wietske Trausel explains enthusiastically. "Some like to work in the garden, others in the bakery or waitressing. Here, you can be yourself, and if things don't work out, we help each other."
