Cycling through the nature around Deurne

At Palingpaviljoen Rijpelaal you can grab a drink on a terrace before you cycle into the countryside. On roads where hardly any cars drive, you cycle through a mosaic of woods, streams, fields and meadows. You will also pass the Bakelse Plassen. In Milheeze you pass the Sint-Willibrordus church. South of Deurne you cycle through the Galgenberg, a nature reserve also known as the Liesselse Bossen. You pass the Johanna-Elisabeth, this corn mill from 1844 is one of the few bottle-shaped mills in the Netherlands. A little later you enter the vast coniferous forest of the Brouwhuissche Heide. Berkendonk is a recreation area built around a pond. You drive through the forest here for a while, before you get off at Palingpaviljoen Rijpelaal.
