Sunday 30 December 2012; Hollandse Houtroute in the new land of the ‘Flevopolder’ near Lelystad. Nothing official; just improvised 8.2 km according to our GPS. Easy – but possibly muddy – trails just south of Lelystad in the reclaimed land of the IJsselmeer / Zuiderzee. Typical production forest, now managed with a bit of ‘let nature take its course attitude. Bit like the neighboring Oostvaarderplassen which are much ‘wilder’, however major parts there are closed for the public… The Holllandse Hout area however gives you ample opportunities to wander around freely, as many trails provide you with a lot of alternatives….
