July 24, 2026,Afwisselende en indrukwekkende wandeling rondom Rhenen

Today I walked a route that had been on my wish list for a while. Several Komoot contacts had praised it (@Ria van den Heuvel, 🙏). After today, I can fully agree with them.
It is a beautiful and very varied route, but above all impressive. On the Grebbeberg you walk past several monuments that commemorate the Battle of Grebbeberg. …

What a wonderfully beautiful walk this is. Starting with a strong headwind along the water, a nice cup of coffee before we cross the water with the ferry, the splendor of the Blauwe Kamer, with the gift of spotting and capturing beautiful animals and a delicious lunch. Then a small climb Grebbeberg, rewarded with beautiful views over the previously walked …

NS Walk The Blue Room! What a beautiful route! Really recommended. Easy to do with 17.6KM according to the planning. We went a bit wrong at the beginning so it became a bit longer. We also stopped for a moment at the military cemetery on the Grebbeberg.

After a walk in the polder you have to cross to the other side of the river with a ferry (80 cents per person). Here you walk through the nature reserve De Blauwe Kamer, an area with swamps and grasslands. …
