Description

In the vicinity of Enschede and Oldenzaal you can enjoy cycling through a park-like landscape with forests, winding streams, meadows, fields and much more. Hills give the landscape here an extra dimension. Discover it yourself with this bike tour.

The Oldenzaal moraine
The starting point of this route is between Oldenzaal and De Lutte. At the start of the route you will be introduced to the Tankenberg, the highest point in the province of Overijssel at 85 meters above sea level. This mountain is part of the Oldenzaal moraine. The first part of the route goes downhill from here towards Losser. Then you cycle further to Lonneker along the edge of Enschede. There you can take a look at the Lonnekermolen, a windmill dating from 1851.

Hotel't Kruisselt
You cycle back through Oldenzaal to the point where you started your tour. Keep in mind that on the last part of the route you cycle back up the mountain that you came down at the beginning of the route. So it's a bit of a climb here to eventually arrive at Hotel't Kruisselt in Lutte. Here you can spend the night in comfort to recover from your tour.

Continue exploring
Not enough of Twente yet? Then after your overnight stay you can of course continue exploring the beautiful surroundings. First enjoy a delicious croissant for breakfast and then get back on your bike. The hotel rents bicycles, so nothing will stop you from not only making this tour, but also route 151254. When you return, you can pamper your muscles in the warmth of the sauna or swim a lap in the pool.
