Pijnenburg family estate
Pijnenburg is after Den Treek-Henschoten near Leusden and Prattenburg near Rhenen the largest estate in the province of Utrecht. The area of 350 hectares with forest and nature, prehistoric burial mounds, nationally listed houses and a nationally listed park is largely open to the public. Across the site, 32 kilometers of hiking trails, 3 kilometers of bridle paths and 1.7 kilometers of cycle paths form a network that covers an area of 14 football fields. A sports club would have to pay a handsome sum for the rental of so many fields. The Insinger family makes it available for free.
On the estate you will find, among other things, a climbing forest and a tea house that is leased to operators. The family calls itself a charitable, social and social conservationist. It preserves cultural-historical heritage, helps people with a distance to the labor market without receiving subsidies and is responsible for a significant part of the forests around Lage Vuursche. Nowadays, Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park maintains a mountain bike path of 4.5 kilometers. The stock markets will also remain closed. Pijnenburg receives no compensation for this and, in principle, has nothing to worry about.
