Cycle route Weesp - Spiegelplas - Hilversum

Bergse Pad Summer 2008
I have earlier described a cycle route to Hilversum but this one is a little longer. I have only tried the route once but I'm looking forward to use it more often. Especially the landscape near Spiegelplas is beautiful.

The cycle route:
When you come from the centre of Weesp turn right after you have passed fort Ossenmarkt and follow 's-Gravelandseweg along the river Vecht. After about 4 km you can see the remains of fort Uitermeer, which you should make a break to see. After the fort follow the road Kreugerlaan to you reach Gooilandseweeg. There you turn to the right.

Ankeveense Plassen - Summer 2008
After the break follow Bergse Pad to the end of the road. There you will reach Stichts End where you turn to your right. After about 200 metres you will meet Herenweg, which you follow till you have to cross a small canal. On the other side you will find Noordereinde. Follow the way till you reach Leeuwenlaan at your left. If you follow that you will come to s-Gravelandseweg which will lead you to the centre of Hilversum.
