What to do during your Pentecost weekend

The standout event of the Pentecost weekend is Whit Monday, which marks the annual German Mills' Day. Several historic mills across the region open their doors for the occasion — most of the year closed to visitors.

Expect guided tours, engaging exhibits, and live demonstrations of traditional craftsmanship — a genuinely local, once-a-year event that's easy to build a day trip around.

Pentecost on the Water

Late spring is a lovely time to get out on the Vecht — the water's calm, the banks are green, and a kayak or canoe trip makes an easy half-day activity between the long weekend's other plans. Boat tours through Nordhorn's water-city are another relaxed option if paddling isn't your thing.

A Round of Golf

With an extra day off for the long weekend, it's worth considering a round of golf — courses near De Lutte, Lingen, and Enschede are all within about 35–40 minutes' drive, an easy way to fill part of the break.
