The Amerongse Berg was created when moraines formed during the ice age, about 150,000 years ago. From the mountain there are a number of nice viewpoints. So bring binoculars! And then simply enjoy the Amerong forest, one of the oldest forests in the Netherlands.

Not spectacular as a mountain and hardly recognizable as the highest elevation, but thanks to the beautiful forest it is a worthwhile destination.

This "mountain" is 69 meters high and the highest elevation in the province of Utrecht. It is located in a beautiful forest that was once created by the lords of Castle Amerongen.

The audio instructions are too frequent: every thirty to forty steps on long stretches with no turns.
The walk is very nice though, with a lot of variety: views of the river from far and near; different types of forest; heather; ferns; and a windmill.

Highest point of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug. Information column. You have no view. Is in the middle of forest.

Highest point. But not a spectacular climb. You can see Veenendaal if you walk down the path.

The climb starts at the 't Berghuis. At 69 meters above sea level, the Amerongse Berg is the highest point of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug. The top is in the forest. Only trees to be seen and an information column.

One of the oldest and most beautiful forests in the Netherlands for walking. It is especially beautiful here in the fall.

Forestry Amerongse Berg: 🌲🏞️
The impressive Amerongse Berg Forestry is located on the edge of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug. Here every step becomes beautiful with breathtaking views and extensive nature. The varied routes take you through extensive forests, along rolling hills and on natural paths. Reach the top of the Amerongse Berg and be rewarded with a panoramic view of the sunny landscape. It is an invitation to enjoy the silence and harmony of nature.

The Utrechtse Heuvelrug, in which Boswachterij Amerongse Berg is located, originated during the penultimate ice age, the Saalien. During this period, a huge mass of ice from Scandinavia pushed sand, gravel and stones in front of it. This causes the formation of moraines, including the Utrechtse Heuvelrug. After the ice retreated, the earth's layers folded, which is part of the long ridge as we know it today. The area is mixed by a varied landscape with forests, heathlands, sand drifts and beautiful nature reserves such as Boswachterij Leersumse Plassen. It is a vibrant piece of Dutch nature, steeped in history and the constant beauty of an ice age-shaped landscape. 🌍✨ #WandelTotaal #UtrechtseHeuvelrug #Nature walk

Beautiful forest for walking, many mountain bikers in some places. Many beech avenues and areas with old beech trees that have been demolished. Lots of mosses and fungi on the 'tree corpses'.

The Amerongse Bos, located on the 69 meter high Amerongse Berg, is one of the oldest forests on the Utrechtse Heuvelrug and also the highest point of this nature reserve. In the 18th century, the first forests of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug were created here by the residents of Amerongen Castle. A walk through the Amerongse Bos is a walk through history. In any case, you are not the first to leave his or her footsteps here.
