Unique natural environment around the Stone quarry
The remarkable eagle owl is just one of the unique residents of the protected nature reserve. At the moment, you cannot enter the stone quarry due to a visitor safety study taking place but, during the building-break in the summer, there will be an exception. You can then access the fantastic Steengroeve theatre at which volunteers provide four more-than professional musical performances. The stone quarry can also be seen from the viewpoint on the Steengroeveweg and there are also a range of walking and cycling routes around the area itself.
Visit the quarry
Would you like to go down into the quarry? At the VVV Inspiration Point in Winterswijk you can book the walking excursion ‘Experience the quarry’. Led by a guide, you take a walk of approximately 1.5 hours and learn more about the history of the coulisse landscape, the special natural values, the exceptional geological qualities of the area and the future plans around the quarry.
