June 11, 2026,🇳🇱 Bunnik | Landgoed Rhijnauwen & Amelisweerd, Langs De Kromme Rijn

After a week full of rain, this drier day seemed like an invitation I couldn't ignore. So, off to Bunnik for a walk through one of the most beautiful green areas around Utrecht.

From the very first meters along the Kromme Rijn, it felt like the hustle and bustle was far away. The babbling water, the old trees, and the …

Part 2 of the Kromme Rijnpad. Now from Rhijnauwen to Nieuw-Amelisweerd and back. Beautiful route under the smoke of the Uithof through cultivated forest and along the rippling Kromme Rijn where possible.

Today we had a lovely walk along the Kromme Rijn river near Utrecht. Parking at the sports fields was great, but it was a good thing we weren't too late because of the football match, as the Utrecht stadium is nearby.

The Kromme Rijn river meanders here through the beautiful countryside. Along the river you'll find beautiful country and old farm houses. There are several places where you can have lunch and coffee. I guess that it can …

Today we walked this fun and varied route. Afterward, we found a spot at the pancake restaurant. It's actually a really nice idea to have a nice meal together after a walk. Thanks for the new inspiration, and we'll try the other routes too.
