Description

The Gelderse Vallei has endless views, small forests, wild heaths and old hamlets to offer. You cycle here through a wet lowland that traditionally consisted of blue grassland. Here and there you can still find remnants of this original soil. Nowadays the meadows are a lot drier and many cows graze there. You also drive through National Landscape Arkemheen-Eemland. This peat meadow area with its old allotment pattern is known for its tranquility and space. There is hardly a tree or house to be seen. Many rare plants grow in this area, such as valerian, loosestrife, celestial key and arrowhead. It is an ideal resting and breeding place for meadow birds, but ermine, weasel and hare also scrape together here for their living. From the dike you have a beautiful view over the Nuldernauw. There are also some historic buildings on your route. For example, you will pass the medieval estate Oldenaller. Among other things, the old country house, two farm complexes and a staff residence with dovecote have been recognized as national monuments. The buildings are not open to the public. Just below Nijkerk you drive past corn mill De Hoop from 1888. The two entrance gates of the mill are not opposite each other. Those who used to enter with a horse and carriage had to make a bend in the mill. The route starts and ends in Stroe at restaurant De Landing. You can park here for free and charge your electric bicycle. In this hospitable restaurant you can relax after your beautiful bike ride. The menu is full of delicious dishes, there is something for everyone. It is advisable to make a reservation in advance. You can also cycle route 179059 from this location.
