July 23, 2022,Waterliniepad etappe 08: Abcoude - Weesp

Summer walk from Abcoude to Weesp. Along the Vecht. Unfortunately, opposites. Only the last part to Weesp is along a meadow. Great distance for a day like today.

Today by bike to Abcoude and from there a lovely round to Weesp. Of course no one will have missed it that it is spring but as beautiful as I have experienced spring today and managed to capture it photographically I would not have dared to dream this morning, everywhere big fat buds, blossom, yellow roadside flowers that are already …

Today I cycled to Abcoude and from there I walked a round through the Gein to Driemond, Weesp and via Nigtevecht back to Abcoude, by means of this varied polder and river walk I went to see how our neighboring villages spend King's Day and that was a double celebration... I already had polder fun and in these municipalities they …

March 11, 2022,Rondje Nigtevecht, Driemond bij Weesp

Nice walk along water and through the polder.
Along the Vecht, Amsterdam Rijnkanaal and the Gein.
Started in Nigtevecht, after 11 km coffee/lunch place Anna Haen. Coffee at Fort Nigtevecht after 1 km in the weekend.

Many hiking trails through pasture, very nice. The road along the Gein is very narrow and busy on this Friday.
