Solse Gat

Highlight • Forest

According to folk tales, there used to be a monastery here, where dark practices took place... The abbot and the monks who lived in the beautiful monastery did not take the pious life very seriously. They drank gallons of wine, gorged themselves during meals and organized meetings with witches and ghosts. Together they danced until it became light again.

This went on for a long time. The monks partied, drank and enjoyed life. Until, sometime in the Middle Ages, a stormy Christmas evening put an end to the wicked excesses in the forest. Suddenly, local residents heard a huge lightning strike. The next morning a little boy passed by the site and discovered that the entire monastery had disappeared into a large hole in the forest. All that could be seen were some uprooted trees around the site, the brick path that was the access road and a deep hole.

Three Monks and a Fox Wooden Sculptures

Highlight • Monument

On this crossing there are, carved from tree stumps, 3 different pilgrims. 1 with beer, 1 with jenever (gin) bottle, and with a sigar (and a dog). Let's hope that the cigar will last long.

Nieuwe Prinsenweg through the Speulder Forest

Highlight • Cycleway

This is a paved cycle path through the dense forests of the Speulderbos. This forest is located on a moraine, which means that you will find considerable differences in height here - by Dutch standards.

Speulderbos Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This cycle path for the Speulderbos must be one of the most beautiful cycle paths in the Netherlands. The paved path winds wonderfully through the fairytale deciduous forest and the path seems to have no end. Please note that the path can be busy, especially on weekends, with other cyclists, elderly people and families. Because the path is also quite narrow, it is mainly suitable for touring, not racing.
