Tour of Keukenhofbos

The Keukenhofbos is a nice place for a nice walk. The Keukenhof Forest Tour takes you to this forest, which used to be part of the Keukenhof Estate . Now you can walk beautifully along leafy paths and avenues. Be sure to look up. In the old trees, long-eared owls spend the day nodding between the branches.

It is wonderful to walk through the beautiful old forest with large, thick trees in the middle of the bulb fields. The Keukenhof Forest is a varied and hilly forest area with beech, oak and coniferous trees. Woodpeckers, owls, tits and pigeons nest in the hollows of the trees. Blue herons make large nests in the tops of Scots pines in the spring.

In the forest you can still taste the 15th century history of Teylingen Castle (Sassenheim). The forest where you now enjoy walking so much was the'kitchen dune\\\' for the castle. The proceeds from this dune forest, such as game, cattle, herbs and berries, were intended for the kitchen of Teylingen Castle. Hence the name Keukenhofbos!

After walking tired and with pink cheeks and cold hands, you can go to one of the many cozy restaurants for a hot chocolate, a red wine, a tasty beer and a delicious snack and who knows, you might even linger for a delicious dinner that matches your taste. the time of year!
