The largest contiguous water sports area in the Netherlands? You can find it in Central Limburg! This route takes you along the Maasplassen. De Tuspeel is a unique nature reserve near Beegden. It was once part of a much larger contiguous heath and peat area. You pass through a number of old villages, such as the picturesque Wessem, which enjoys a protected village view. Sometimes it is really worthwhile to walk with your bike by the hand to properly take in the surroundings. Thorn is one of those villages where you automatically apply your brakes. This town is also called the white village because of the many white facades. The route starts and ends at Gasterie De Knip, where you can enjoy a well-deserved drink and snack before and after the tour.
