Tour of Country Houses in Spaarnwoude Park

Your route starts at EuroParcs Buitenhuizen. Today you will discover the versatility of Spaarnwoude Park. You walk across a reclaimed stretch of the IJ through the Buitenhuizen recreational polder. Here you will see an old standard orchard, forests and a historic pumping station. Take a break at the Zorgvrij information farm, the information center of the Spaarnwoude recreational area. There is a pancake restaurant and local shop, but you can also pet cows, tap milk and make cheese. Wonderful to experience the atmosphere! On a beautiful summer day, the Peddelpoel in Oosterbroek is a nice place to swim. The pool is beautifully enclosed in a bowl, bordered with trees and shrubs. You walk back via Zijkanaal-B, where you can often see canoeists. Shortly afterwards you will come across many larger ships on the IJ!
