Hiking excursion North Holland Dune Reserve - Zaandam / North Holland

Hi everyone! For those who want to enjoy nature, trips/excursions, and generally a more outdoors setting, let’s get together for a hiking excursion! The plan is to meet at Utrecht Central (and/or a train station that is closest to our hiking area), and then we begin our hiking route.
For first-timers (or as a helpful reminder 😉), I recommend that you wear a comfy outfit & shoes and bring water & a snack or two. At some point during the excursion, we can do a break in between to rest and eat/drink for a while.

Depending on the time & weather, and whether people are up for it, there’s always the possibility of follow-up drinks later that day.
More info about the route/location:

Short info from the route's site; the route is 15 km in total and ends in Egmond aan Zee (a beautiful coastal village). From there, you can take a bus to Alkmaar, and then connect to the train network. For pet owners, dogs are allowed but on a leash

Note! This time, the dune reserve has a 2 euro entrance, which can be paid online here --> https://www.pwn.nl/duinkaartkopen
In case someone is unable to pay it, hit me up

More tips on finding the group along with helpful contact info with the host will follow in the comments the day before the meetup.

To those interested, hope to see you there! 😄

In case of bad (NL) weather, the event might be moved to another day.
