Deventer and the Gorsselse Heide

This route starts on the edge of Deventer, one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands. Gorssel, the next town on the route, is in sharp contrast to the urban ambiance of Deventer. You can clearly taste the conviviality of a close-knit, small-scale community. The route ends at Tapperij/Eethuis't Hof van Colmschate, a cozy café with an Irish ambiance. After your bike ride, play a game of billiards or throw a dart on the dartboard while you wait for a tasty meal. Mill De Leeuw is a nice attraction in the village of Bathmen. Nowadays the building has returned to its original function. Milling is still done here using traditional methods. You can buy craft products in the associated shop. Browse around and buy something tasty to enjoy on the go.
