A varied walk through the Herikhuizerveld and the Smitsbos to the well-known Posbank. The Posbank is a monumental bench and popularly also the name for the hilly moorland in which it lies, but this area is actually called the Herikhuizerveld. This hilly moorland is a real gem in the Veluwezoom National Park.

Herkhuizerveld.
The walk goes through the moorland Herkhuizerveld to Koepel de Kaap from where you have a nice view of the whole area. From there, it continues through the beautiful Smitsbos forest where stately beeches rule the roost. Via the Holle Weg you walk along winding forest paths to the Posbank. Here you have a nice viewpoint from where you can admire this 'most beautiful landscape' of the Netherlands. The route passes through this hilly heathland area and on the other side, after a steep climb, you reach another viewpoint. Along the edge of the area, it continues to the Heuven sheepfold. Next to the Spreng van Heuven you walk back towards the starting point where you can have another look at the Veluwezoom visitor centre.
Avoid during weekends if possible.
