Duno

Duno is an estate in Renkum that spreads across forests and grasslands near the Nederrijn river, with natural streams flowing through its varied terrain. The property encompasses different zones created by the landscape's natural features.

The manor house was built in the late 1700s by A.F.O. Blombe Vatebender at the request of estate owner Charlotte Sophie. This period of construction marked the beginning of the property's current form.

The estate reflects traditional Dutch landscape design, particularly in the Azalea lane where flowering shrubs create seasonal displays. Visitors experience this historical garden approach firsthand while walking through its different sections.

Several hiking trails start from nearby Castle Doorwerth and lead through the property with paths designed for comfortable walking. The routes are laid out to be accessible for visitors of varying abilities.

The property sits on a moraine formation that creates distinct ecological contrasts between high and low areas and between wet and dry zones. This geological feature makes the landscape rich in biological diversity.
