ESC-project
Destelheide & Hanenbos offer high-quality accommodation for groups and individuals, with priority given to youth groups.
Destelheide & Hanenbos are two separate domains in the same village. Both work together but have their own individual activities. In the Destelheide domain you are stimulated by the artistic environment. In the Hanenbos domain, the forest offers opportunities for groups to get to know the surroundings and nature in an adventurous way.
The groups staying in the centres are a source of inspiration for you as an ESC volunteer to help develop the image of the centre.
