Tour of Amersfoort

Step back in time and admire the historic imperial city of Amersfoort. The city centre has retained an authentic medieval character with its many canals. Towards the end of the 13th century, Amersfoort was given a city wall, of which little remains, but you can still admire the gates of a second wall today. A rock of a route is only possible in Amersfoort. In the year 1661, 400 Amersfoorters pulled a 7157 kg boulder from Soesterberg to the city for a bet. Although the action was completely pointless, the boulder has become the symbol of Amersfoort. At the starting point of the route, Bilderberg Hotel De Klepperman, you can easily park your car. We recommend that you stay overnight in one of the luxurious rooms of the fine hotel, so that your day trip becomes a relaxing cycling holiday and you can also cycle route 138238. The staff will welcome you warmly and are ready to meet all your wishes. The route takes your steel horse past the Dutch Cavalry Museum. In an extensive exhibition from horse to armored vehicle, the tasks and resources of the cavalry are displayed.
