Notter lies on the Regge. Local highlights include the Grimberg walking route, the remains of the former Havezate Grimberg, grazing land and artisan dairy products. This offers several ways to get to know the village: through its river and cultural landscape, its history or a working farm.

Hiking on the Regge

The Grimberg walking route starts at the Grimberg trailhead on the walking network at Klokkendijk 14 in Notter, near the Grimberghoeve. From there, follow the blue arrows. Check the trail markers before setting out so you can follow the designated route. The route runs along the Regge through a varied cultural landscape.

For planning, it helps to know the exact starting point: the Grimberg route has a named trailhead, and there are also numerous walking and cycling routes along the Regge near Notter. If you want to follow a specific trail marker, use the Grimberg trailhead and the blue arrows as your guide. If you are mainly looking for routes by the river, you can also consider the other routes.

Landscape and local history

The Grimberghoeve includes grazing land and its own nature area, where Hereford cows graze with their calves. Alongside the river and cultural landscape, farming is another aspect of the village. Notter therefore offers more than one way to explore the area for those interested in nature and agriculture.

The former Havezate Grimberg is also part of the village’s history. All that remains are the moat and two brick gate pillars with sandstone caps and decorative urns. The historical connection is therefore limited to a few clearly identifiable remains: the moat, brickwork, sandstone and urns. Those interested in historic estates will find a different focus here than on a walk along the Regge.

Cycling and crossing the Regge

There are numerous walking and cycling routes along the Regge near Notter. The hand-operated chain ferry may also be useful for cyclists and walkers: it lets you cross the Regge between Notter and Zuna. The ferry is a separate way to cross the river; it does not prescribe a particular route. Check the crossing conditions before your trip.

These options serve different purposes: the Grimberg route has a named starting point and blue trail markers, while the ferry provides a river crossing between Notter and Zuna. The many paths along the Regge add to these options. Which one suits you depends on whether you are looking for a marked walking route, other paths by the river or a crossing on foot or by bike.

Dairy products from Notter

Reggezuivel makes artisan dairy products on its farm in Notter. When the farm is open, you can sample the products and visit the farm. Check the current opening hours before visiting, as tastings and farm visits are only available when the farm is open.

This adds a local production angle to the trails and historical remains. You can choose to focus on hiking or cycling along the Regge, explore the remains of the Havezate Grimberg, or—when the farm is open—discover its dairy products and visit the farm. Check the relevant details for trail markers, the ferry crossing and farm visits according to your planned activities.
