Tour of Wijhe, Raalte and Wesepe

Your route starts at Het Wapen Van Wesepe. Discover how rural Overijssel is! Small-scale characterizes the region, because while you cycle along the marshy Overijssel meadows, you will encounter few to no people. All you see on your route is local traffic. You find your way through a semi-open coulisse landscape, which was designed on sandy soils. The meadows and fields surround beautiful estates and forests. So you can wander through a typical Dutch landscape. One of the larger places you will encounter during your trip is Raalte. You will also cycle past the Wijhese Molen from 1703: the oldest still existing octagonal smock mill in Overijssel. It was in full operation until the Second World War. The mill still grinds with one pair of millstones.
