Aa en Hunze Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

About Aa en Hunze

The landscape of the region is characterised by theHondsrugsand ridge in the western part, and peatlands in the eastern half. The western part of the municipality has a long history, with many old so-calledbrinkdorpen(villages centred around a village green) and a landscape similar to neighbouringTynaarloand toNoordenveld. The settlement history of the eastern part of the municipality is much more recent. Starting in the 16th and 17th centuries, the peatlands of easternGroningenand northern Drenthe were exploited. The landscape and history in this area is therefore similar to that of thePeat Districtof Groningen.
