Past the most beautiful churches, Central Groningen, 52 km.

One person calls them beacons of silence, peace and contemplation, another praises their robust appearance and another states that together they are one large museum. The fact is that almost every village in Groningen has a beautiful church. And not only the churches are famous, some organs are also world famous, such as the Arp Schnitger organ in Noordbroek. If possible, walk inside to enjoy the silence, the murals or exhibitions. The route from Harkstede to Schildwolde runs through the Roegwold nature reserve. Here you experience the silence and space of nature. The Kerkenroute Midden-Groningen largely follows the cycling junctions, but sometimes another part is just a bit more beautiful. The route deviates here.
