Description

The landscape of the Sallandse Heuvelrug National Park was formed 200,000 years ago by glaciers from Scandinavia. Now you cycle past rolling forests and heathlands.

Holterberg
The forests on the Sallandse Heuvelrug have been planted to prevent sand drifts and form a nice change from the dry heathlands that you cycle over. You also come across the Holterberg, which measures 59.5 meters above sea level at its highest point. The last viable population of grouse in the Netherlands lives here.

Ter Horst
There is also a small piece of Canadian territory on the Holterberg: the Holten Canadian War Cemetery. The Canadians died in the Netherlands during the Second World War. Along the way you will also pass the Ter Horst mill in Rijssen, an octagonal upper porter from 1752. Until 1913, this beautiful tower mill operated on wind power. The grist and peel mill then fell into disrepair, the ruins were only renovated in 1973. Volunteer millers beat oil and peel barley at the mill, which is beautifully situated along the Regge.
