Sunday 14 June 2020, Wekeromse Zand near Wekerom, Province Gelderland, 8 km
The “Wekeromse Zand” is one of the last remaining ‘drifting sand’ areas in The Netherlands This (circular) hike has entered our personal top 10; very varied, abundant wildlife (birds, insects), primarily off road tracks and cyclists are kept at a distance apart from some mountain bikers… Some ancient burial hills as well, the Celtic fields, ice ages stone and other landmarks and you might even encounter Mouflons. We started our hike at the parking along the Vijfsprongweg near the replica of an iron age farmhouse. .
Sandy or muddy depending on the weather, so sturdy footwear recommended. We tried to follow the ‘red route’ but despite or maybe because of the numerous signposts we navigated primarily with our map.
