Forest Hues & Craft Brews: A Hike & Beer Tasting Adventure

Hey CampFires Crew,

Get ready for an adventure that perfectly blends nature's beauty with a cozy, local experience! This time, we're heading to the stunning Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park for a day of exploring changing forests, towering sand dunes, and serene lakes.

Our journey kicks off at Driebergen-Zeist station, where you can grab a coffee at the café before we set off. We'll spend the afternoon on a beautiful 13 km trail, enjoying a proper hike and finding a perfect spot in nature for our lunch break.

But the adventure doesn't end there! We'll make our way to a unique local craft brewery in Zeist for a special private beer tasting at 16:00. This isn't just any brewery; it's a place that captures the village's character, using local farm products and leftover beer malt to bake fresh bread that we'll be tasting. This truly is an experience you won't find on a typical tourist path.

Join us for a day of making new friends, discovering hidden local gems, and rewarding ourselves with a fantastic beer tasting.
