Busses also run from Amersfoort Central Station. However, since you are already at the train station, a train would be much more effective.
All points of interest found in and around Barneveld can, from the main train station, be reached by foot. To speed up travelling times, however, travelling by bicycle is recommended. Additionally, you can travel by car.
