Wouter describes the comfortable route from Aardhuisweg back towards Uddel. It's fun to do, especially in wet weather, as you and your bike will arrive covered in fine white spray. But if you're looking for a real challenge, go the other way: first, an endless, gently ascending straight path through the heathland, and just when your legs start to feel the heat, there's the heart-pumping winding path through the trees. Actually, it's more fun.

On the Noorderheide heathland near Vierhouten, three landmarks made of boulders can be found: the Daniel George Pyramid (D.G. Pyramid), the Miesje Pyramid, and the Peter Paul Pyramid (P.P. Pyramid). Along with the now-lost Victoria Pyramid, they were part of the estate of Daniel George van Beuningen (owned by the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum). In 1935, he constructed ingenious waterworks here, consisting of brick gutters, ponds, and a pumping station to pump water and supply the streams. The three remaining pyramids have been restored by volunteers.
