The kind of place where, after a few minutes' walk, you forget you're in the Netherlands. At De Hamert, you'll walk across ancient river dunes from the Ice Age, past vast heathlands and tranquil fens—and suddenly you'll find yourself at a gigantic burial mound: the "Prince's Grave." Thousands of years old. It's quite bizarre to think that people once buried their dead here... and now you're just walking past it. Along the way, with a bit of luck, you'll spot Galloway cattle, numerous birds, and that characteristic silence you can almost literally feel. ✔️ Diverse landscape ✔️ Beautiful vistas ✔️ A touch of mystery & history Tip: take some time at the fens (and if possible, go early in the morning or towards sunset—it's truly magical then).

In long-term drought you notice again that you are cycling over the sand dunes. Sand can become really loose.
