Bunkertrail
- Distance
- 3.3 km
This walk is fun for kids aged 6 to 12, but the beautiful route offers plenty to interest adults too. Using your smartphone, you'll explore the area between the forts at Vechten and Rijnauwen. The trail cuts across a meadow filled with bunkers – or group hiding places, as they're officially known. In the AbelLife app, you can read all about the local nature and wildlife, the forts and the life of wartime soldiers. For kids: At the end of the walk, test your knowledge in the app's quiz and then collect a surprise at the Waterline Museum in Fort bij Vechten or at the Vroeg restaurant.
