Nice viewing point that owes its name to the lilacs that are planted at the foot of the "mountain".

In the summer the cows graze right in front of you. In De Horsten there are benches at several strategic places on the edge of the forest, which offer a view over the meadows.

September 6, 2024,Het leukste rondje in De Horsten?
We have often made a round in De Horsten, but today's has perhaps the nicest variation in types of hiking trails. The good news is that Komoot actually did it again! By the way, De Horsten is nice and beautiful, but in the weekend when the weather is nice it is often much too busy.

This year I was in time to see the Seringenberg in bloom! Beautiful...and they smell great!

Finally some sunshine so time to start walking again. De Horsten, always nice and close by home. A bit busy on Sundays. Didn't take photos. I have walked this so many times that I have plenty of them. Took the time to enjoy the walk more instead.
Pleasant Sunday walk (8 km) on Landgoed De Horsten in Wassenaar. Red arrows route followed.@
In the background the chirping of the many birds and the drumming of a woodpecker.
As a challenge, of course, we climbed the Seringenberg, which resulted in a beautiful view as a reward.

Finally, it was time to go mushroom hunting myself. I've seen so many beautiful photos here on Komoot! 🍄‍🟫

The Horsten is beautiful in any season, and even in the dull and gray (but dry 😀) weather, there was plenty of color 🍁🍂 to be found in the forest.
And yes, we even spotted that one red one with white …

Welcome to Landgoed de Horsten. Prince Pils lived here before he became King. Margarita lives there today.
But you can also enjoy walking there. Beautiful estate. There are various routes in the park, but the slow walk still seeks out the lesser-known paths.
First along the pond and then deviated slightly from the route to climb the tower.
Then towpath …

Koninklijk landgoed de Horsten is a large, contiguous green area on the outskirts of Wassenaar. It connects the estates Ter Horst, Raaphorst and Eikenhorst.
Here you will find the beautiful lilac mountain, nice to walk up and see the estate from above.
