Paddling near Eelde, Drenthe
Eelde sits in the northern Dutch province of Drenthe, a low-lying landscape of peat canals, lakes and slow-moving waterways. The area around the village is well suited to flatwater paddling, with the Zuidlaardermeer close by and a network of canals and rivers — including the Hunze and Drentsche Diep — within easy reach. Sail & Surf School Zuidlaardermeer and DX Adventurepark at Gasselterveld are among the local bases for canoe and SUP activity.
