THE SURROUNDING
Holthees was founded around a Middle Age chapel that was first mentioned in 1359.
The Maria chapel in the center of the village dates back to the 15th century. Now the chapel is being used for representative and cultural purposes.
With 540 people, Holthees can be called a hamlet - a beautiful one that is.
There is however lots to discover in the near vicinity!

Pieterpad
Hoeve de Knol is 3 km gelegen van het Pieterpad, gelijk bij knooppunt Vierlingsbeek, de start van Etappe Vierlingsbeek-Gennep en Vierlingsbeek-Swolgen.
In je eigen tempo ervaar je hoe plezierig het is om te wandelen door landschappen en streken die je eerder misschien alleen maar zag vanuit de auto of de trein. Het Pieterpad voert je over de kleinste wegen en paden, zoveel mogelijk onverhard. De afstand per dag bepaal je zelf, maar weg van alle dagelijkse beslommeringen heb je altijd een heerlijke wandelervaring.
