January 9, 2022,Wandelen - Trage Tocht Rhenen -09-01-2022

A very nice walk on a very nice winter day. Also very impressive to see and read what happened during the war years. nl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grebbeberg

Almost immediately we went to the top of the Grebbeberg with no less than 260 steps. We thought we would only get it once, but at the end of the walk we had to climb the …

Despite the grey day with drizzle this was a varied walk, which we will definitely do again (in an adapted form) in another season. Due to the fog the views over the Rhine were limited today. However, this walk does provide a visit to the Military Cemetery Grebbeberg and we pass some trenches and casemates from May 1940.

October 9, 2025,Grebbeberg – Kronkelpad rondtocht vanuit Rhenen

At dawn, along the Lower Rhine in Rhenen. Calm water, dotted with ducks, and tranquility. A staircase of 178 steps offers a beautiful view of the floodplains, tranquility, and then winding paths under the foliage. At the war memorial, the road winds along the next winding paths into fields and meadows under a bright sun.
On the way back, the …

Despite the fact that it is on the cold side, you still have to take a walk with this beautiful weather. The Grebbeberg. When Hennie and I walk the Grebbeberg, we always have to go up and down the stairs once. Good for the calf muscles. The cows are now also looking higher up. It's been a long time since …

One calf biter today. Two stairs of 200 steps and one staircase of 60 steps up and one of 200 steps down again. Unfortunately too cloudy for the beautiful views but well worth it.

Because we thought it was too windy and not too hot, Hennie and I decided to walk around Grebbeberg. The first staircase of 200 steps. Unfortunately, some paths were a bit less passable. The blackberry bushes were quite in the way. Past the zoo where the monkeys were playing and further through the forest, past the corn and cornfields. It …

Today Hennie and I thought we should train the leg muscles extra. So on to the Grebbeberg. We went up another two flights of stairs and one down. In between, of course, enjoyed the beautiful forest and views. The elephants were outside at Ouwehands Zoo. Still good to see now. In a month or two the forest will have grown …

Actually, Hennie and I wanted to watch lambs. But it is probably so busy there on Sunday that we opted for Rhenen. Lambs only look once a week.
We parked the car at the bottom of the Grebbeberg and first went up the stairs. (225 steps) Through the forest to the other side to the forest, at Ouwehands zoo. At …
