From the Sallandse Heuvelrug to the Herikerberg

Fancy a nice and varied day of cycling? Then jump on the saddle for this route over the Sallandse Heuvelrug and through the area around Markelo. From the TOP you drive straight into the woods of the Sallandse Heuvelrug National Park. Here you can fully enjoy the fresh air and the birdsong. After a while you cycle through the heart of Rijssen. Here you can see the Schildkerk, among other things. The oldest parts of this building date back to the twelfth century. From Rijssen you cycle through the Borkeld nature reserve. In the forest on the Herikerberg you can get off for a meal at Landhuishotel and Bistro Herikerberg. Further on you drive through Stokkum, a picturesque hamlet with some old Saxon farms. Via Holten you drive back to the starting point.
