Discover the beautiful nature of the Amsterdam Forest. During this route, you'll pass through the Bloesempark, where hundreds of cherry trees bloom in the spring. You'll also enjoy a stunning view over De Poel, which, despite its shallowness, is still used for watersports.

As you continue, you'll walk through the grazing areas of the Amsterdamse Bos and Schinkelbos, where you can spot Scottish Highland Cattle and Exmoor Ponies.

You begin and end in the old town of Amstelveen, where you can enjoy lunch or a drink afterwards.
