Tour of Bussloo and Deventer

Your route starts at Koffie & Theehuis't Momentje. You will immediately pass by a beautiful recreational area nearby: Lake Bussloo. It was created by sand excavation for the construction of the A1 motorway. Near Twello you will see the Holthuis, a rectangular country house built in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Then you cycle into Deventer. Time seems to have stood still in the Bergkwartier. You will find numerous monuments there, including the Bergkerk. This Romanesque cross basilica is located on an old river dune in the Bergkwartier and was founded by German Premonstratensians in the heyday of the Hanseatic city. Then the IJssel Valley awaits you with its car-free dikes, leafy roads, fields and historic farms. You cycle back via the romantic ruins of Nijenbeek Castle.
