Bommelerwaard
From Gameren you leave in a westerly direction and cycle along the Waal. The Bommelerwaard is also called river island: surrounded by the Waal and the Maas, this beautiful area is characterized by many sights. Think, for example, of historic churches and castles, but you also cycle through picturesque villages and over winding dikes. Enjoy all the natural beauty that this area has to offer. The Bommelerwaard is an inn named after Bommel, the local name for Zaltbommel.

By ferry
Via Nieuwaal, Zuilichem and Brakel you cycle to the Battery under Brakel, built to protect Loevestein Castle and the town of Woudrichem. Via Polderoijensehoek you cycle east towards Andel en Veen. You can cross the Afgedamde Maas from Veen to Aalst by ferry. A nice extra during this cycle route! You follow the contours of the Driesche Wetering to Kerkwijk and cycle through the polder to the final destination of the route.
