What are we going to do?<\/h2>\n

Another lovely walk has been planned for Saturday, March 14. This time, it\u2019s in the heart of the country\u2014in Amersfoort. It\u2019s easily accessible by car and public transportation. We\u2019ll start at the Amersfoort train station. The walk is about 5 kilometers long. We\u2019ll be walking through the historic center and the city park. <\/p>\n

Amersfoort is a charming, vibrant city with centuries-old legends and mysterious tales. History comes to life during the walk. We\u2019ll pass beautiful facades, towers, and city walls. We\u2019ll pass the following landmarks along the way: the Onze-Lieve-Vrouwetoren (the symbol of Amersfoort), the old, angular Dieventoren, and, of course, we\u2019ll take a look at the three preserved city gates. <\/p>\n

Meet-up and Lunch<\/h2>\n

We\u2019ll meet between 11:30 a.m. and 11:45 a.m. in front of the Oudshoorn flower shop at Amersfoort Station (on the south side). The florist is located inside on the right side (before the turnstiles) for those arriving by car, and on the left side (after the turnstiles) for those arriving by train. From there, we\u2019ll walk to D\u00e9lifrance, where we\u2019ll have lunch and get to know each other better. <\/p>\n

The Walk<\/h2>\n

After lunch, we\u2019ll go for a walk together through the beautiful city, heading first toward the Tower of Our Lady. The walk is 5 km long, with benches along the route where we can take a short break. Of course, we\u2019ll also stop to admire the beautiful sights and switch walking partners. Because while we\u2019re walking, there\u2019s plenty of time to chat with each other. The route isn\u2019t entirely flat; we\u2019ll be walking over old cobblestones and climbing two sets of stairs. So sturdy shoes are recommended. <\/p>\n

To wrap things up, we\u2019ll have one more drink together and then walk back to the station so everyone can head home by the end of the afternoon. <\/p>\n
