April 13, 2008, Plantage WillemIII / Remmerdense heide (Elst, Rhenen), Utrechts Landschap, 8 km. Great views this time again, and best of all; no tarmac and lots of birds singing instead of cars humming! An off road trail taking you (slightly) ‘uphill’ from the banks of the river ‘Lek’ to the ‘sand excavation site: ‘zandgat Kwintelooijen’. The Remmerdense heide (moor) is ‘controlled’ by the grazing of impressive Galloway deer and offers an easy going, yet sometimes muddy or sandy trail to the forest and the (former) excavation site which is now being turned into an impressive piece of ‘nature’. Recommended!
Note; the map displays the short route only (3,5 km)
