Wednesday 11 August 2021, Kamerik, province Utrecht, approx. 12 km… Houtdijkenpad Wandelen over boerenland in Kamerik en Woerden (klompenpaden.nl). This hike provides, yet again, an impression of a typical Dutch polder (reclaimed land) landscape. A varied hike as you will encounter various historical landmarks (e.g. Roman trails) as well and you will enjoy the towing-path along the river Oude Rijn.
Note however that the path is closed during the bird-breeding season. Unfortunately the track follows some very busy roads (noise) parallel to the track and has a relatively large percentage of tarmac and other solid pavement. Fortunately on the track there’s not too much traffic. The trail is relatively easy, but can be muddy, including cow-pat, so as always bring sturdy footwear like wooden shoes… 🙂
