Peter's Path [Unofficial]
May 9, 2026
Hiked part 3/27 of the Pelgrims Path, 17.6 kilometres from De Kwakel to Aarlanderveen.
After Fort de Kwakel, part of the Defence Line of Amsterdam, you walk to the Amstel on the border of North and South Holland. Along the towpath of the small river, silence reigns, and only meadow birds and swans look at you questioningly. In the distance, you can see the church towers of Nieuwveen.
