Beautiful walk through a lovely quiet area. Lots of flies this time in the Kijfhoek area. Ate a plate of delicious fries at the farm. 😊

Beautiful dune area, part of Meijendel. For this part you need to buy a day ticket. Can be done online, but also via QR code on site. A limited number of people are allowed per day. It is therefore wonderfully quiet!
