't Gasselterveld near Drouwenerveld

Highlight • Lake

Gasselterveldsee (or bathing lake 't Gasselterveld in Dutch) is a bathing lake and recreational area in the Dutch province of Drenthe, near the town of Gasselte. It is known for its incredibly clear, blue water and fine sand. The lake is very deep (over 50 meters in the middle), which results in relatively cold water and steep banks.

May 2, 2025,Route 🔵 Rondje ‘t Gasselterveld

Its HOT in the netherlands. After a couple of very slow days it was time for some activities. We all are eager to walk. We woke up early and made a nice stroll around the lake. Most of the route it was a nice 14/15 degrees 🤩

Mysterious fog in the forest and above the lake, covered in sun made it an extra magical round this morning!
