There are four handy departure points to start your visit to the Sallandse Heuvelrug: The Sallandse Heuvelrug Outdoor Centre, Information Barn/Erve de Pas, Canadian Cemetery Information Centre and Holterberg Nature Museum. The Sallandse Rug Outdoor Centre has a wealth of information about the natural surroundings, geology and (cultural) history of this unique area. The Dutch Forest Management Agency, IVN Nature education, the Centre for Nature and Environment Education, Hellendoorn Observatory and the Sallandse Heuvelrug National Park all have their home bases here. The Society for the Preservation of Nature and De Schurinkshoeve have created an amazing meeting place at Erve De Pas. Tavern De Pas is a great place for a delicious lunch made with local products.
