Along the IJssel to Zutphen

Deventer is one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands. You will find a beautiful historic centre. And enough gingerbread for a tasty break along the way. If you cross the river by ferry, you will pass the Bolwerksmolen. The farms here are often located on mounds, so that they remain dry during high water levels. Zutphen is not inferior to Deventer, both in charm and age. In Gorssel you can visit Museum MORE. Around this village you cycle through a mosaic of forests, small-scale landscapes and flower-filled fields and fields. Eat and stay at Postillion Hotel Deventer to enjoy the beautiful Deventer even longer. Just past junction 37 you can see the ruins of Kasteel Nijenbeek from the thirteenth century in the distance.
