But on the other hand, you will definitely enjoy yourself as you cycle along the Loosdrechtse and Tienhovense Plassen and the meandering Vecht. These bodies of water offer a serene and relaxing environment, perfect for a relaxing cycle route. You will also pass through the green, wooded area between Hollandsche Rading and Bilthoven. Here you can enjoy the fresh air and soothing views of the vast countryside.
In and around the charming village of Maarssen, beautiful houses were built by wealthy Amsterdammers after the Middle Ages. These stately country houses, such as Geesberge and Goudestein, for example, provide a fascinating glimpse into the past. You can easily imagine what life was like here centuries ago, with all its splendour.
For those who enjoy viewing or visiting forts: you have plenty of choice during this cycle route!

Whether you are a history buff or just want to enjoy a nice, informative stop, the forts along the route are definitely worth a visit.
