Tour of Utrecht and surrounding estates

Your route starts at Stayokay Utrecht - Bunnik. First you cycle past Fort Rijnauwen. This fort was built between 1868 and 1871 as part of the fortifications around Utrecht of the New Dutch Waterline. Together with Fort bij Vechten, this fort defended one of the weakest points in the line. The beautiful city of Utrecht, full of centuries-old buildings and beautiful canals, is perfect for a cultural bike ride. Enjoy all the historical sights in Utrecht and then explore the most beautiful estates in the area around the city. You cycle across beautiful estates such as the Vollenhoven estate, but also along the Maarsseveense plassen. These lakes are popular with water sports enthusiasts. Near Groenekan you pass the nineteenth-century Geesina Mill, which has been made operational again.
