The impressive Liberation cycle route takes you along memories of special events from World War II. It is special to cycle through the municipalities of Harderwijk, Ermelo and Nunspeet and discover what happened during the war. The original cycle route is quite challenging at about 70 kilometres, which is why we have made a shorter version. For anyone who wants to dive into the history of WWII on the North-West Veluwe. Tip: Start at ECHOS Ermelo, near junction 77. This restaurant is still a meeting place for veterans on Thursday evenings, but the rest of the week everyone is welcome. You can perfectly park your car here to start your cycle route. On your return, you can end this impressive day with a nice snack and drink.
