Nature reserve Het Twiske, near Zaanstad and Amsterdam. A beautiful walking area with lots of water in the form of lakes, canals and locks and with small peninsulas. A small part of the Stooterplas can be walked on as a walking path over small reed islands connected by bridges.

What a beautiful area it is. Last year I walked this route alone, now with nice company :-) Due to the breeding season, we had to make a small adjustment to the route after 1 km. Beautiful walking weather with beautiful cloudy skies. Largely paved, so no problems with wet feet on this route.

Today we went for a walk in the twiske (which means between) the area between Landsmeer and oostzaan.

Not being able to follow the route everywhere because of the mud.

Had a few good walks outside, but also sun and Scottish highlanders.

Started at the Anton Heyboer museum/gallery 🤩🤫

What a beautiful area this is, highly recommended! And also much ' wetter ' and ' ferocious ' than expected 👌🏻🤩
Another beautiful nature reserve near Amsterdam, which you actually do not expect (parking € 3.50 with a visit time of up to 3 hours afterwards € 6.00).

Thanks @Jesse for the inspiration, your walks gave me the idea 👊🏻😀

Beautiful walk. Twiske is a beautiful walking and cycling area.
Along the way we came across many opened giant shells, probably food for the many birds. How do those shells get here in freshwater areas?
