The Vosbergenpad is a clog path of 14 km and is well signposted.

I walked this route counterclockwise, so that my first 6 km went through forest and heathland.

Then through Heerde to Landgoed Vosbergen. The route also partly crosses this beautiful estate.

From Landgoed Vosbergen you walk on the towpath along the Apeldoorns Canal to Hoorn.

Mowing is allowed there, so I preferred to take the other path. But …
