One of the clog paths that is still easy to walk is the Kreelsepad. Some mud, but we could avoid that. Today we walked this path together with @Ria, which was different in our memory. But we don't know for sure. It now seemed as if there were more long paths, but there was also a lot of rest area …

The Ginkelse Heide is a beautiful nature reserve near Ede. Here you can wander all year round over the vast heath and through the forest. Do you want to go hiking, cycling, mountain biking, flying a kite at the sheepfold, horseback riding or spotting wildlife? The Ginkelse Heide is also the habitat for many red deer, wild boar, sheep and …

October 19, 2024,Klompenpad Kreelsepad 20241019

Due to an ankle/shin injury that flared up during the previous walk and persisted throughout the week, this time I won't be able to do a combination of two "klompenpaden" (climbing paths) or one "klompenpaden" (climbing path) with additional kilometers added on to reach a total of between 25 and 30 km. Therefore, all planned walks longer than 15 km …

January 17, 2022,🇳🇱 Klompenpad: Kreelsepad

Because I had to be in the area, I walked this clog path today. What a beautiful and varied path. Everything was there, heather, forest, fields, fens and yes NO mud, not once......
Halfway through, I met people who had just seen wild boars. Well I did come across cattle with big horns walking precariously towards me, but no wild …

February 15, 2022,Kreelseklompenpad

Walked this clog path again today. One of the most beautiful Klompenpaden. Although there are many beautiful ones. You should not walk this path in the summer unless you like to trudge through the loose sand. Now it was doable. So now no mud. There were few walkers and cyclists, so enjoy nature peacefully.
At the sheepfold, of course, on …

This Klompenpad (the Kreelsepad) went mainly through heathland and forest, and through the Planken Wambuis nature reserve. It was a beautiful route, but certainly not the most beautiful Klompenpad I've ever walked.
Recording it with Komoot somehow didn't work out. I walked at a speed of 8.8 km/h??? That's quite enthusiastic! 😂

May 28, 2023,Kreelse Klompenpad (#40)

Special clog path. Totally 0 paved. Many long straight paths with quite loose sand. Kind of military highway. Not really a traditional Klompenpad, which does not mean that it is not beautiful. Beautiful heathland and views. We can recommend the stopover at Mossel to everyone.
