Walk the grounds of the Hilversumsche Golfclub. Opened in 1910, this is one of the oldest and most prestigious clubs in the country and has hosted the Dutch Open 26 times. Even if you do not play, the course is open to visitors during opening hours, offering a quiet, green start to the day.

Walk through Boombergpark. This area was purchased by painter Jan van Ravenswaay between 1831 and 1841. It offers a peaceful, historic landscape just west of the golf club.
