Tour Nunspeet: water, forest and heathland

After a cup of coffee at Bakkerij en Lunchroom Uniek, you cycle along country roads towards the Veluwemeer. A beautiful, free-standing cycle path between the grasslands leads you to the seventeenth-century Kasteel De Essenburgh. Here you turn off into the forests on the north side of the Veluwe. You will also find a lot of heathland here: for example, you cross the Elspeetse Heide, with its heathland sheep and centuries-old burial mounds. What a change! On the way back, you have a beautiful view of the Veluwemeer from the Oude Zeeweg. The name of the road is of course reminiscent of the Zuiderzee. For safety reasons, but also because the First World War caused a food shortage and new agricultural land could be created on Flevoland. Now the Veluwemeer region is a popular area for water sports enthusiasts - and cyclists!
