Tour of Radio Kootwijk, Loenense waterfall and Loenermark

Today's tour takes you past numerous sights around Apeldoorn and Hoenderloo. In the village of Lieren you can take a look at the Beekbergen VSM (Veluwsche Stoomtrein Maatschappij) station, a stop of the tourist steam train that commutes between Apeldoorn and Dieren. The line was constructed in 1887 at the initiative of King William III. Then you drive past the Vrijenbergerspreng and the Loenense waterfall: the highest waterfall in the Netherlands! This reduces the flow in the stream, which has a drop of about 15 meters over its 6.5 km length. The Loenermark is a beautiful area with forests, rolling heathlands and a sheepfold. You drive back past Radio Kootwijk, the former radio station to the starting point of the route; Forest pavilion't Leesten. Enjoy a well-deserved drink here with a tasty snack.
