Monday 20 September 2010, ‘Orchideeënpad’ (Orchids path), 7 km / 9.2 km (wandelrouteboek, number 5). Initially we set of to follow the Orchids path… but as we seem to have missed one of the blue markers we improvised.. Nice varied trail, starting at the port of Lauwersoog with a some nice historic ships births… subsequently following the Waddenzee dike with a nice view at the island Schiermonnikoog across the sea… Take a right back inland as soon as you are ‘allowed ‘(you are circumnavigating a military exercise area) crossing the woods toward wide open fields back to Lauwersoog. Note that the track takes you through an area which is sometimes closed for public because of (military) exercises. If this is the case it is announced well in time and clearly indicated (lights and flags).
