Directions
Follow the route via waypoints 12-53-54-61-64-80-81-82-86-55-54-53-12, or choose one of the two alternatives as shown in the GPX file.
Alternative 1: Halfway between waypoints 53 and 54, the main route turns sharply to the right. At this bend, turn left instead of right and walk across a small dyke straight through Peelvennen Aan ‘t Elfde. Just past a cattle grid, you’ll rejoin the route. Turn left onto the wide sandy path towards junction 61. You will then have skipped junction 54.
Alternative 2: at junction 86, you would normally turn right towards junction 55, onto the red route. Instead, turn left onto the red route and follow it in a wide arc, passing over small log bridges and past viewing towers, until you reach junction 55. Turn left here towards junction 54 to return to the starting point.
