Westerheide Heath near 't Bluk

Highlight • Natural

The heath in this area, called the Zuiderheide, used to be a communal heath where farmers grazed sheep. Now it is a beautiful nature reserve that turns purple at the end of the summer.

The Hoorneboeg is a wooded area on the edge of the Hilversum heath. Enough of the hustle and bustle of the city? Then you can relax here. From mid-August to mid-September you do this between beautiful lavender colors.

December 11, 2021,Gooisch Gravelfest 🌤 #TeamKetelbinkie

What luck with this sunny top day! Ok, the forest strips were blubby, but with a lot of compact gravel you also get dirty 😝.
Occasion team Ketelbinkie had chosen this beautiful Gooische gravel ride from Gravelrides.cc as an alternative to the unfortunately canceled Gravelfest of Lau in Limboland 😔. So crossed the beautiful heaths with Scott, TTL Dave, Rinske …

August 11, 2024,Gooische Glamour Gravel route

This route has been on my list for a while to ride. A real Gooisch gravel glamour route! Recommended. Varied route. Small forest paths and well-known Gooische gravel alternate. Worth repeating!
