August 28, 2025,NL: Nationalpark 6: Utrechse Heuvelrug: Wo schon Napoleons Männer campierten....

A tour that not only showcases stunning natural beauty, but also demonstrates, in the public parks of some older estates, how people can interact with nature's originality and, in doing so, enhance its impact. Iron staircases and bridges, a narrow arched concrete bridge, and beautifully landscaped lakes are striking examples. So there's a lot to discover. We had a blast!

July 3, 2024,Station to station - Driebergen naar Maarn

Parked the car in Maarn, first had lunch and then took the train to Driebergen. The planning was great because when lunch was over it was almost dry and the train arrived immediately.
Enjoyed a nice walk with a former colleague through the very varied Utrechtse Heuvelrug.
Later during the walk the coats could be put away and we actually …

In Austerlitz I expected a coffee opportunity and deviated from the planned route. Recognizable by its dead-end piece.

August 2, 2026,Wandeltocht Maarn

Today started at Maarn station and walked through the forests and heathlands to Driebergen-Zeist station.
The route also goes through the village of Austerlitz, where we had a coffee break at Ouwekamp, our eatery.
I walked this NS hiking route against the direction, but that's because Maarn station was next up as a walking starting point.

Thanks to a very nice collection of walks from @Sabina Knezevic - Farawayistan through all the National Parks of the Netherlands, I walked the one through the Utrechtse Heuvelrug today. From Driebergen-Zeist station to Maarn, this is also indicated as an NS walk. I only slightly adjusted the route at the end while walking, because those 600 meters more really …
