Tour of picturesque Salland

Peace and quiet prevails in Salland: the ideal region for a long bike ride. You drive past fields, meadows and through forest plots where you regularly have views to picturesque open spaces. You regularly pass old Salland farms and country houses. You will also pass through small, surprising villages such as Heeten. In the gently rolling landscape you regularly see the blue lines of canals and old waterways. For example, you pass the Schipbeek near Bathmen. Together with the Regge, this stream formed the most important trade connection across the Salland water until the mid-nineteenth century. The Overijssels Canal put an end to the importance of this stream. The route starts and ends in Bathmen. Stop off at Hotel Restaurant De Zwaan in charming Raalte along the way!
