Tour of Weert and Peel from Nederweert

After a cup of coffee - or of course an ice cream! - you get on your bike at Ice Cream Parlor Florence. First of all, this route takes you in a large circle around De Groote Peel National Park, a raised moor area where peat was formerly extracted. It is the only remnant of the large raised bog that used to form the border between Limburg and Brabant. When you have almost returned to Nederweert, you will cycle past the De Korenbloem windmill from 1870. Nederweert is a pleasant village in the Limburg Peelland. Originally Nederweert was part of Weert, where you can also cycle past. In the 14th century, these two places were separated. It used to be part of the Prince-Bishopric of Liège. Only at the beginning of the 19th century did Nederweert become part of the Netherlands.
