Round Amersfoort

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