Tarel .'s restaurant
The first part of this route takes you from Schipborg to Assen through the Drentsche Aa National Landscape. Man has hardly had any influence on this nature reserve and that is why it has looked about the same for centuries. Here you will find forests and heaths through which the brook the Drentse Aa meanders. In this beautiful area you can take a break at the Restaurant of Tarel. Enjoy a tasty snack and a drink here and gain new energy to continue your bike ride.
Discover Assen

From here you can also follow route 124246 and route 334185.
