August 25, 2024,Landgoed Beekhuizen – Observatiepost rondtocht vanuit Rheden

What a beautiful walk. From start to finish; it is so beautiful there. I left very early because around 10 o'clock it gets very busy I noticed. And let's be honest: you prefer to walk such a beautiful walk in complete silence. Then you see the pigs and wild horses and you hear the birds. I will definitely go back …

The round was super nice with many narrow paths and sometimes up and down. We'll definitely hike there again.

A very nice Photowalk made with Instawalk_Arnhem, over the unknown Posbank route. It was a bit cloudy and we had some splashes, but that didn't spoil the fun. We started at the Woodz forest hut, and led by Chris we walked an unmarked route. I recognized a number of points from the walk we walked in April. Chris showed us …

Enjoyed being outside again today. Wonderful trip made from the Posbank, over the heath towards Beekhuizen. Very varied route, hilly, through the woods, over the heath. Start was very cool, 3 degrees, eventually it became 10 degrees and with the sun it was a lot of fun. 😃

April 18, 2025,Rheden - Waterval Beekhuizen - De Posbank

In just under ten kilometres, this ‘moraine short trail’ serves everything that makes the Veluwezoom famous: a romantic stream with waterfalls, climbs, wildlife and the widest heathland panorama in the Netherlands. Start and finish comfortably proof at RestaurantDeHoutplaats, because after 232 metres of altitude, that cappuccino tastes twice as good.
