Ancient woodlands along the Kromme Rijn, within cycling distance of the city centre.
Just outside the city, you can walk beneath monumental trees along the winding Kromme Rijn. Wander along meandering paths through the old forest, spot kingfishers by the water, and finish at the stately country house Oud Amelisweerd at the edge of the estate. Together with the neighbouring estate Rhijnauwen, this makes up around three hundred hectares of green tranquility.
