Prattenburg

Prattenburg is a private estate in Rhenen that encompasses extensive forest with beech-lined paths and patches of heathland spread across its grounds. Walking trails wind through the property, offering access to diverse landscapes and wooded areas.

The estate was first documented in 1502 and underwent major reconstruction in 1887 under Jhr. Mr. van Asch van Wijck, who introduced a coach house and gardener's residence. These changes shaped the property's present layout.

The Friends of Prattenburg Foundation organizes regular lectures and events focusing on nature preservation and the estate's environmental significance.

Access is provided through marked walking trails suitable for different fitness levels. Visitors can find parking at the Green Entrance on Cuneraweg 420 in Rhenen.

The property runs a program to replace existing trees with climate-resistant varieties to secure the forest's future. This long-term environmental commitment shows how the place adapts to changing conditions.
