Tour of Over-Betuwe: Doornenburg, Huissen and Bemmel

In the commuter town of Huissen you will find a surprisingly new centre with a number of beautiful old houses. Further on you cycle through the Rijkerswoerdse Plassen, which are part of Park Lingezegen. Via Elst you cycle to Bemmel, where you can take a look at De Kinkelenburg: part of the country house is a reminder of its fifteenth-century origins as a donjon. A little later you cycle onto the Waaldijk: from this road you can look out over many kilometres of orchards and floodplains. Fort Pannerden, a little further on, was built from 1869 to 1871 to guard the fork in the Rhine and the Waal. Doornenburg Castle is also worth a visit.
