Loop around Elspeetse Heide and Vierhouterbos

The route starts at Hotel Mennorode. You immediately ride into the vast forests of the Veluwe. Enjoy the nature and the silence. Soon you pass through Elspeet with its characteristic old farmhouses. On the Elspeetse Heide, you have a beautiful view of the plain from the saddle. A special feature of the Elspeetse Heide is the presence of centuries-old burial mounds and old oak coppice woodlands. Heath sheep have traditionally grazed the heath. It is no coincidence that at the end of the nineteenth century, various painters captured rural life around Nunspeet: the landscape here is a picturesque mix of meadows, hedgerows, and old farmhouses. Stop along the way at Het Stationshuisje in Nunspeet! You ride back through the delightful greenery of the Vierhouterbos. What a varied day!
