You start at the bandstand in this cozy village. The church in this village is worth a visit. You walk along the little river the Wijde Alm in the direction of Rijswijk to arrive at Almbos (picking is allowed) at Fort Giessen, the southernmost fort of the Nieuwe Hollandse Waterlinie. If the gate is open, take a look! It has been recently restored and a volunteer will be happy to show you the fort. Taking the country road towards Waardhuizen, you will arrive back at the bandstand in Uitwijk.
You can extend the route by walking straight ahead at node 11 towards nodes 34 and 35. A beautiful route along the Wijde Alm in nature. At node 35 you turn right towards points 37, 36 and 13. Then you are back at the point where this route started.
