Crayenest Route (red)
Rate this route
The Crayenest Route (red) in Heemstede leads to Crayenest, once a hamlet, on the south side of the Haarlemmerhout. The Koninklijke HFC football club has its pitch there. In the 17th century, there were several mansions (including Huis te Crayenest) and five inns. The route takes you via a kwakelbrug (a bascule bridge) over the Crayenestersingel. The Singelvaart was once dug for sand extraction and was later also useful for the transport of textiles for the bleach houses and laundries. The route also leads over a remnant of the beach ridge forest at Nieuw Overbos and along the Berkenrode estate.
