When people think of mills, they often think of the province of North and South Holland. And it's true, there are many mills in Holland. But you will also encounter mills in the rest of the Netherlands, like in this beautiful part of our country. The route not only introduces you to a number of mills in Gelderland and Brabant, but also to a few other special sights in these two provinces. Like the Fortress of Ravenstein where you can learn all about this old fortress in the information center about this area. The church tower stands out beautifully above the rest of the houses. You will also pass by the Graafs KazemattenMuseum. In this museum you will learn all about the influence of World War II in this area. A casemate is a small concrete or stone bunker that could provide protection from the enemy. You can visit a number of them in this region. Furthermore, this cycle route takes you through beautiful natural areas such as the Overasselt and Hatertsevennen, a special area with rolling river dunes created in the last ice age. Because the fens were in danger of drying out in the 10s of the 21st century, part of the forest was converted to heathland. Cycle through the Heumen forest where roe deer are regularly spotted, along the Kraaijenbergse Plassen and along the banks of the Maas River. Don't forget to look across the water at junction 66, as an added bonus, you will also see windmill Zeldenrust in Overasselt on the other side of the river.
