Discover the Amsterdam Forest by bike! From Scottish Highland cattle and goats, to the relaxing atmosphere of the Cherry Blossempark and Schinkelbos - this diverse route takes you along the animals and beautiful nature of the Amsterdam Forest. Take a break in the old village of Amstelveen for a cup of coffee or lunch. The route begins and ends at the Bosbaan, but can also be started at other places along the route. 

NB: In the Schinkelbos you'll cycle on a stretch of unpaved path. This part of the route can be bypassed by skipping the loop through the Schinkelbos.
