Around Leusden (2)

One of the inevitable routes follows the dike aside the Valleikanaal. If you keep the high grounds on the westside,you’ll be able to get off the dyje over a narrow footbridge to the old railroad track. Either follow that track – partly over the old track, partly on the road aside it. Or get off at the first opening, turn left and follow the forest track. There are several ways to continue, one is following the long distance patyh of the Utrecht Pad through the woods of Den Treek. At end, you can cross the highway into amersfoort and find your way to the station (and contiue the Marskramerpas to Leusden), or follow the road aside the highway.
This is the map of this walk, and it’s projection on GoogleEarth – and the Garmin, GPX and CSV fomat tracks.
