Closed in winter

Beautiful view over the water. Water tower can sometimes be visited!

Lovely ride along the fort

There are bike paths next to it, but if you do not want to stop, you are still on the road next to the water tower and these bike paths are either in bad state or on the road - which is often very busy. Thus, I would not recommend adding this highlight particulary without the intention to stop here!

The Bosbaan, built in 1937, is the oldest artificial rowing course in the world and a popular place for rowing training and competitions. From the shore near the restaurant you can often see rowers training hard or competing here. Follow the paths along the water to experience the activity up close, or walk further into the Amsterdamse Bos for a peaceful walk through nature.

bring along proper shoes and strong mindset

Great long bike path along the canal, it can be windy at times

The Fort at Aalsmeer, also known as Fort Rijsenhout, dates from the years 1890-1895. The tank buildings built 10 years later meant the completion of the fort in 1905. It was part of the Amsterdam defense line. During the mobilization in the First World War, the fort was manned by approximately 280 troops. Since 2009, the CRASH Museum of Airborne Warfare and Resistance '40-'45 has been located in the fort, which is open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
