From Amersfoort into the Gelderse Vallei

From the edge of Amersfoort you drive straight into the Gelderse Vallei. Here you will find a varied landscape and of course the rich cultural history that Gelderland is so famous for.

Along the Nuldernauw
You cycle through a landscape consisting of a series of meadows, fields and nature reserves. It is easy to make kilometers in this beautiful area. Just past Nijkerk you cycle over the Zeedijk, a name that recalls the former Zuiderzee. On the left you look out over the Nuldernauw, on the right over the National Landscape Arkemheen. This peat meadow area with its centuries-old parceling pattern is known for its peace and space. There is hardly a tree or house to be seen.

Gelderland Paradise
In the area around Kallenbroek, time seems to have stood still. You pass through an old farmland with grasslands, fields, streams and forests. The Kallenbroekerweg itself is also a picture, it is lined with oaks. A little further on you pass Den Olden Florus, one of the oldest still existing post mills in the Netherlands. At Landgoed Stoutenburg you can learn more about the nature and cultural history of the Gelderse Vallei.
