Description

From Zaltbommel you can drive straight into the floodplains along the Waal. You can also cycle through the Geldermalsen area. That will be a day of enjoying orchards and lovely old dike villages.

Lock St. Andries
You start the route in Zaltbommel. In the old core of this more than a thousand year old fortified city you will see plenty of historic buildings. Just outside the city you cycle along the Kil van Hurwenen, a bird-rich floodplain area. It is wonderful to make miles on the Waaldijk. You pass the Sluis St. Andries, which was built on the spot where the Waal and Maas once had an open connection. Further on are two former fortresses.

Castle Waardenburg
You cross the Waal with a ferry, after which you cycle into the Betuwe. It is quiet cycling between the many fruit orchards. At Poelzicht you can grab a drink before continuing to Geldermalsen. Here you will pass Mill De Bouwing from 1848. Further on you will pass Castle Waardenburg and the idyllic surroundings of Molen Waardenburg, which dates from 1780. How beautiful the Gelderse Rivierenland is!
