As in probably every other profession, there are also a few so-called "black sheep" among the many honorable millers in the milling trade. In his book "The Flight to Egypt," the popular children's author Otfried Preußler recounts the following short episode: "And they didn't even make it all the way to Klostergrätz that evening, but a mill lay along their path, the Kloster Mill – and there they stayed until the next morning. At first, the miller was almost struck dumb when the Imperial and Royal Gendarmerie suddenly knocked on his door: Apparently, there had been some disputes with a customer last week over a few sacks of grain, which had inexplicably disappeared from his mill […] but it could have been that he was reported for it anyway – and now they were coming to get him… Naturally, all the disputed sacks of grain immediately fell from the miller's mind, as [Sergeant] Hawlitschek simply asked for lodging for the night."

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.
