Utrechtse Heuvelrug and De Vlasakkers

Description

From junction 86 at De Holle Bilt, we cycle along the Amersfoortseweg, through Soesterberg towards the De Vlasakkers nature reserve. We pass the Soesterberg Airforce Memorial and cycle over a runway of the former Soesterberg Air Base.

Through the beautiful Korte Duinen area, we reach Amersfoort, where we follow the Stadsring between junctions 99 and 98. At junction 98, you can park your bike to walk along the shopping street, the Langestraat, towards the city center and catch a terrace at the lively Hof square.

We leave Amersfoort towards junction 80, then cycle through the Nimmerdor forest area, the Den Treek-Henschoten estate, the De Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park, and Zeisterbos towards Zeist and its 17th-century castle, which is definitely worth a visit and where there is an opportunity to catch a terrace.

We leave Zeist towards junction 97 to return to junction 86 via the Niënhof estate, the Oostbroek estate, and the bicycle bridge.
