Monday 21 September 2009, route 26 Combination of the Oude Havenroute and the naturetrail de Kuilen near Kuinre, 9 km. The Oude Havenroute starts of great with a reconstruction of the old harbor… yes, this was an inner see not too long ago… After that; bit disappointing and boring unless you’re interested in a wide variety of ferns. Fortunately the statues carved in trees by the world champion with the chainsaw John van Kampen provide a welcome distraction! The nature trail compensates for the disappointing trail above. Although still developing; it’s a very attractive scenery, well marked and despite the short distance very varied… The Welsh ponies who are responsible for ‘maintenance’ really fit in the landscape, but when blocking your trail these ‘wild horses’ might cause some delay… Free advise: if you’re by car, use it to get from one track to the other; the connecting route isn’t very attractive along a tarmac road. If you’re in for some extra miles there are more interesting forest tracks to get from one hike to the other…
