Description

Just above Oss you can enjoy this varied route where you cycle through the De Maashorst nature reserve, but also tour along the Maas river. The Maashorst is the largest contiguous nature reserve in North Brabant, full of beautiful forests, heaths, drifting dunes, fens, meadows and winding streams.

Authentic places
From the starting point you cycle through De Herperduin, the northernmost boundary of the Maashorst. You then cycle through the towns of Berghem, Haren and Megen. In the old town of Megen you can visit Museum Het Oude Raadhuis. This small museum of modern art has a changing collection of works of art. You can also take a look at the Megen monastery complex. The monastery was built in 1721 and it is the oldest Poor Clare monastery in the Netherlands. From Megen you take the ferry to Appeltern. At the Maasdijk you have a beautiful view of the floodplains.

The Kriekeput
The end point of the route is De Kriekeput. This is the place to end your cycling tour on a good note. You can go to the Eeterij at any time of the day for a cup of coffee, lunch or dinner. You can also have a nice barbecue here with a group. The menu is accessible with dishes and products from the region.
