Track 13: Laren to Vorden - 13 km / 18 Photos

22 October 2024
On the day that it looks like it will be an unexpectedly beautiful autumn day again, I can't resist getting
on the train and bus to Laren in time for another beautiful day on the Pieterpad.
Having eaten a sandwich on the way on a bench in the sun, I arrive at Vorden station well before rush hour,
where the train arrives exactly when I am there, so I can simply prepare and eat my evening meal at home.

Reformed church of neoclassical architecture from 1835. Recognizable by the bell tower because there was no money for a real tower

Immediately outside the village the route runs along country roads between the fields
Image
And along the path along the side of a drainage cana
Image
The ground under the path is wet, partly due to the high water level as a result of the heavy rain

Passage of the Twente Canal, which was opened in 1936 for the textile industry in Twente

A long straight sandy road through the Great Vorst

De route loopt over een weideveld naar het landgoed Enzerinck ...

... om daar over te gaan in een nieuw aangelegd pad ...
Image
... dat vervolgens weer overgaat in een oud pad langs een stilstaande vijver

Trees in beautiful autumn colours line the path that then leads past the front of the Enzerinck country house

The Enzerinck estate with gardens and the adjacent farm

Den Bramel Castle and its outbuildings behind the trees surrounding the land
