Fort Altena Line Route

Cycle through the southern part of the New Dutch Waterline, where the fortified town of Woudrichem (also Old Dutch Waterline) is worth a visit. Get off at Fort Altena for a regional lunch, visit the museum and the Liniewinkel. There is a guided tour of the fort every first Saturday and third Sunday of the month; an interesting addition to this cycle route. Further along the Line route you can view the flora and fauna from a bird-watching casemate in the Zevenbansche Boezem nature reserve. A route through a varied landscape along rivers, sturdy military heritage, floodplains, farmlands and picturesque villages.
