Start: 2025-12-13T11:00:00+01:00

Location: Oisterwijk Train Station

Hello there! On the 13th of December the Veluwe Power Hikers will travel to Oisterwijk, for a loop hike that takes us through nature reserve the Kampina and the Oisterwijkse Forests and Fens.

As the name already tells us, during this **19 km loop hike** we will walk through a varied landscape of forests and fens, with some heather fields sprinkled through. Plenty of views to enjoy as we approach the shortest day of the year!

After 13 km, we will make a stop at Boshuis Venkraai, where we can enjoy a hot drink and a snack. Once it was a ranger's home, nowadays a cosy café/restaurant. As it is quite small, fingers crossed they have enough room inside for us!

Some sections can be a bit wet, so **bring good hiking shoes**.

**📍When and where to meet?**
Oisterwijk train station at 11:00am, at the water fountain in front of the station.

⏰ **We** **start walking a few minutes after 11:00** — we don’t wait for latecomers, as the forest calls and daylight is short this time of year.

**🚗 Coming by car?**
There should be plenty of parking space. But note: It’s always the drivers who are late 😉 So please arrive a bit early to avoid running after us.

**⏸️ Planned Breaks**
\~ 7 km: 15 min break for a drink/snack, out in nature
13 km: 30-45 min break at Boshuis Venkraai

🏁 **Finish**
At the same spot we started, Oisterwijk train station.
