Description

You notice it immediately when you cycle in the Achterhoek: a country road is rarely straight here. It winds past tall trees, wooded banks, streams and around fields. Every few meters your view changes. From Saxon farm to forests. And suddenly you have a vast landscape in front of you, especially if you cycle near the IJssel and the river De Berkel. This route takes you from Harfsen through nature and the villages of Eefde and Almen. In the Achterhoek you will still find the peace and quiet from grandmother's time. An ideal environment to switch back for a while.

During this route you will pass a number of beautiful old buildings. You see Saxon farms, sometimes still thatched, which belong to the type of hall house farms. In the front part is usually the living area, behind that is the part with the stables and, at the top, the hay store. They give your route an extra historical touch.

Just before Almen you will see the Warkense Molen, a flour mill from 1878. In Almen itself, the village center still exudes the atmosphere of long ago. If you drive a bit to the right from the Whemerweg instead of the left into the Dorpsstraat, you will see the Reformed church from the fourteenth century here. At numbers 59 and 64 there are two more national monuments from the nineteenth century.
