Het Graafschapspad

The 'Graafschapspad' is a regional path with a length of 125 kilometers through the Achterhoek. The route is marked with yellow-red signs in both directions. The path starts in Zutphen at the St. Walburgskerk and can therefore be walked in either direction, clockwise or counterclockwise. De Graafschap owes its regional name to the former county of Zutphen, a union of noble families, castle lords and cities. The literal translation of the dutch word 'graafschap' is county.
