Circuit of 3.2 km through the Blosodomein Hofstade.
100% traffic-free, 75% in the forest.
The start and finish of the loop are located near the entrance from Weerde (northwest side, next to the swimming pool/train station of Hofstade). See here for the opening hours of this access: https://www.routeyou.com/location/view/47513809/noordwestingang-blosodomein-hofstade-langs-station-met-openingsuren.nl. Parking is available for Zemstenaars at the swimming pool opposite this entrance. If you are coming from afar, take the southern or eastern parking lot.
The loop starts at the top of the bathing lake and goes counterclockwise, so with the bathing lake on your left side, following it in the shortest possible way.
It passes by the sailing opportunities, the sports hotel, the skate facilities, the playground, and the boat restaurant. Between the skate facilities and the playground, you stay to the left of the bathing water. You will need to go briefly down the slope and then a bit further up again (be careful not to slip here).
After the boat restaurant, you will see a water ditch on your right side. Follow this on the right side (you should avoid going left into the beach water – now a paid area for non-Zemstenaars).
On the east side of the bathing water (which is somewhat hidden behind the low beach building), you will pass the Sportimonium.
(NOTE: From the Sportimonium, the path is marked as it is accessible for Zemstenaars (with identification) on sunny beach days. Others have to pay entrance fees on these days. If you don't have money or don't want to risk having to stand in line, turn right at the Sportimonium towards the parking lot and after 30 m turn left. There you follow the water ditch on the east side until it ends. This is also where the black beach boundary begins, follow this boundary so you can pick up the loop again a bit further.)
Continue behind the Sportimonium along the beach buildings that bend northwest further. At the end of these buildings, you have the beach boundary again. If the weather is not suitable for the beach, you can walk through here. You follow the concrete path next to the sand beach, and at the end of the sand beach, you will encounter a boundary again (you can exit at any time).
Continue following the bathing lake, which leads you between the two largest lakes on the site (take the highest path, it’s the easiest to walk).
At the northernmost point of the lake, you will have a fork to a small bridge down to the left and then a fork to the left that does not lead to the bathing water. You can take the first fork if you want to loop around again, take the second if you want to return to your starting point.
