Green environment

No distant horizons, but intimate pieces of heath, forest or farmland. In Westerwolde you cycle along winding streams and you see gentle slopes in the country interspersed with historic buildings and charming villages. You will notice when you get on your bike that the surroundings of this cycling route calm you down.
