Hiking

Bantam only originated in the 18th century. The then owner of Schaep en Burgh was given permission to also mine part of the Naarderveld. A landscape garden was created, also called Little Switzerland. The hills and ponds from that time are still there. The straight beech and oak avenues, laid out by the famous landscape architect Zocher, are also still there. There must once have been a so-called Turkish tent on the highest hill where people drank tea and had a view as far as the Zuiderzee.
