Tour of the Mosbeek Valley and Engbertsdijksvenen

Your route starts at Gast Tweewielers, from here you can cycle smoothly to the beautiful Mosbeek Valley with its historic watermills. The Engbertsdijksvenen is a vast peat area with heath, forests and fens, a remnant of the large peat swamp that once covered the entire northeast of the Netherlands. The best way to explore this beautiful nature reserve is via the specially constructed wooden boardwalks, and be sure to join in! Around this area you drive through the Twente peat region. You will find a lot of cultural history here. Get off at Veenmuseum Westerhaar. In this beautiful open-air museum you will see real peat huts, an old typical Vriezenveen farm and a nineteenth-century shop and taproom. You can be driven around the site in an original peat train. You drive back along car-free roads past meadows and fields.
