The walk begins at a special monument that was festively opened in 2018 after a thorough renovation: Fort Giessen, the southernmost fort of the Nieuwe Hollandse Waterlinie. When open, it is definitely worth a visit. The volunteers are happy to tell you about the period of World War I. An experience park has also been developed with a trench! There is an unpaved walking path around the fort.
The walk leads you through the village, toward the Wilhelmina Lock. Want to take a look? Then walk after node 27 along the provincial road towards the lock. Then walk over the dike towards the connection with the walk around Rijswijk and through the village and Almbos (picking is allowed) to the end point.
