Ermelo sheep pen

Website: schapedrift.co.uk/

In the middle of the moors is this cute sheepfold, with its own flock! Ermelo sheep pen is more than just a sheepfold, however, as it also serves as a visitor center. Here you can get a lot of information about nature and the sheep herd for free. The moors are in bloom in August, when they are at their most beautiful. Perfect month for a bike ride on the moors so. But, in May there may be cute lambs to see at the Ermelo sheepfold. Also very cute!

From Garderen, the Schaapskooi Ermelo is easily accessible by bicycle or other means of transportation. Therefore, this point is also in many cycling routes across the Veluwe included, it's a perfect stopover! For example, go out with the funny E-bikes or E-Choppers of the Veluwe Specialist, then a stop at the Schaapskooi is definitely recommended. But also if you do a bike ride on electric bicycles or normal bicycles. A fun day out with family or friends? Then this is a nice option! Click here for more information about the Ermelo Sheepfold.
