Tour of Enschede and Oldenzaal

From the heart of Enschede you can stretch your legs as you cycle to the campus of the University of Twente. Further on you will come across the eight-century-old Hof Espelo estate. You continue towards Oldenzaal through the scenic landscape with its rolling fields, flowery meadows and small forest plots. In this former textile city you will see some beautiful monumental buildings, and you will also pass the thirteenth-century St. Plechelmus Basilica. In the countryside you can fully enjoy the natural beauty again. In combination with the tranquility, this creates a wonderful cycling area where you will be happy to return. Just before Lonneker you pass a flour mill from 1851. In the village itself you see the Jacobus de Meerkerk from 1912. The route ends at IntercityHotel Enschede, the ideal base to further explore Enschede.
