Description

The Utrecht Hill Ridge, a 50 kilometer path that goes along the province of Utrecht. And cycling through it is one of the best ways to know the country. So, I invite you on this wonderful half day biking adventure to Lage Vuursche. Don’t miss the opportunity to explore this amazing part of the Netherlands.

This scenic ridge stretches from the southeast part to the northwest part of the province. We will be cycling across the Soestduinen, passing by enchanting woodlands in the north parts of the country.

Also, we will visit the Park airbase Soesterberg, a very unique place with a huge cultural and natural significance. This used to be a working airbase, that witnessed the birth of the Dutch military aviation. And it is also home of the National Military Museum, a must stop in the area. So, we will be unveiling all the stories this important place guards, as we explore its historical buildings and wonder into the past. What’s more its former runway nowadays hosts the widest biking paths on Earth. Thus, the fun never stops here!

Then, we will visit the village Lage Vuursche, which is the perfect place for a delicious picnic. So we’ll get to try the traditional Dutch pancake. After a quick stop, the fun will continue as we explore 18th century houses that will make us feel like we stepped into the past. Moreover, this town has a royal status, because Princess Beatrix lives in the Drakenstein Castle, Lage Vuursche during the summer.

What’s more, the trails here are amazing and most of the roads are in excellent conditions. Hence, they are perfect for people with different fitness levels.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
