Sketching in Pinetum Blijdenstein

📍 Hilversum Station, 11:00 → Pinetum → back by ~15:00
🚶‍♂️ Short walk (~20–30 min each way)
🎯 Main location: Pinetum Blijdenstein (€4 entry)
This time we’re keeping it shorter and focusing on one beautiful spot: the Pinetum — a small botanical garden dedicated to pine trees, full of interesting shapes, textures, and quiet corners to sketch.
We’ll meet at Hilversum Station at 10:00, walk together to the garden (arriving around 10:30), and spend about 2 hours sketching.
There are some benches, but not many — please bring a foldable chair or smth alike if you’d like to sit while sketching (big blankets won’t work here).
Around 13:30, we’ll head back toward the station. If people feel like it, we can grab coffee and maybe lunch at Mout before wrapping up around 14:30.
Bring:
Sketching materials
Water
Foldable chair
Comfortable clothes + an extra layer
No pressure on skill level — quick sketches, detailed studies, or just experimenting are all welcome.
Come for the trees, stay for the sketches 🌲✏️
