Eldensche Veldpad: a local 18 km walking route

Klompenpad Eldensche Veldpad is a local walking route of 18 km. This page covers everything you need to know about the walk, so you know what to expect along the way. In total you climb 17 m and descend 16 m, so the height difference along the route is small. The map shows the full route, and the elevation profile shows how the route runs. The pitstops are marked too: the public toilets, drinking water and benches along the way. That makes it easy to plan your walk in advance.

The route is 18 km long, and almost half of it, 45%, runs over asphalt. For the rest, you walk 39% over natural ground, 8% over unpaved terrain and 7% over paved ground. So you get a mix of hard and softer stretches. Walking shoes with a sturdy sole are useful for the asphalt and the paths. The types of path also alternate.
