Beautiful walking path along the river Winkel

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful walking path, which is part of LAW Waterliniepad. It is nice to know a little more background about the Waterline and the Defense Line of Amsterdam. Then you look at this beautiful piece of nature with completely different eyes.

June 2, 2023,Ouderkerk a/d Amstel - Vinkeveen - Abcoude - Ouderkerk a/d Amstel

Unfortunately, it is not always possible to walk and Komoot can be at the top due to crowds and other circumstances, not being able to hear from me for a while. And when I've been away for a while I always have trouble picking up the thread again. Thanks to attentive responses from my good Komoot friends @Edgar und Alice …

February 23, 2025,Rondje polder vanaf Abcoude

This round is a free association of the walks in Ron's habitat. (Thanks @Ron) Strange that you can still make such rounds through the empty polder with a view of Amsterdam! The winding river De Winkel is certainly charming. But in the end we found it a bit too much asphalt, too much noise from airplanes; highways (A2, A9) and …

November 21, 2025,Rondje Abcoude met restaurant de Voetangel als begin- en eindpunt

Today, playtime was limited, so I cycled up and back to Voetangel, and from there, started and finished the walk on Komoot. On the way there, I already grabbed two bonus photos... I thought these two sunrises were too beautiful to let go unspent, so here are two beautiful morning shots at the end of the photo series. And what …

Today, after 3 months of light abstinence, I was finally able to make one of my favorite house rounds again. June 16 we were allowed again... the breeding season is over on paper and what a beautiful morning I had today. I left with light rain which stopped fairly quickly and then It is so wonderful to be in nature, …

May 22, 2026,Ouderkerk - Abcoude - Vinkeveen - Ouderkerk

Today, after my outdoor activities outside our borders, it was time again for a home game and a round from home with Abcoude and Vinkeveen in the spotlight. A beautiful day when the thermometer hit 27 °C, which unfortunately I was not prepared for, I regretted not having put on shorts after 5 minutes. But along the way, this miscalculation …

May 17, 2024,Retteketet wat 'n Polderpret 🥳🤩😍

The extension of my adventure series was almost in danger and today's house round managed to save this in the nick of time and provided a lot of lively and pleasant polder fun with the necessary walking pleasure, another nice win-win situation I would say 😅🤩😍
