Description
With this route you will discover the beautiful nature around Bussum. You drive through the Tafelbergheide and the Westerheide. You will also pass through the historic centers of Bussum and Huizen.
Fortified city of Naarden
The route starts at the parking lot in the heart of Bussum. A little further on you will pass Naarden, one of the best preserved fortified towns in Europe. From the canal you have a beautiful view of this historic town. In the woods on the edge of the Gooimeer are many villas and country houses. No wonder, it is wonderfully quiet here.
Westerheide
Switch back a bit to enjoy the historic atmosphere in Huizen. A little later you cycle into the woods. At junction 80 you are almost at the highest point of the Gooi: the 36 meter high sand ridge that is called Table Mountain. Finds in prehistoric burial mounds show that people have lived here since 2500 BC. You have beautiful views on the Westerheide. You cycle back to the center via Natuurbrug Crailoo and the Frans Kampheide.
