River Eem is the only Dutch river that both originates and flows within Dutch borders. The Eem originates from the Lunterse, Barneveld and Heiligenberg brooks, which meet in Amersfoort and leave the city from the Koppelpoort as De Eem. The river is eighteen kilometers long and eventually empties into the Eem Lake, near Eemnes. With this bike route you will follow a large part of this river and even cross it once more. You will come across beautiful and unique places where you will be impressed again and again by the phenomenal views. Decide where you start your bike route. Wherever you start, don't forget to pause your bike route several times to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Green, bird and silence areas, during every season you will be surprised by this special environment. Besides the beautiful kilometers along the Eem, the bike route also takes you through the hilly forests near Baarn. Brilliant! You can easily start this cycle route from Groeneveld Castle, where you will find a large parking lot along the main road and can immediately enjoy the photogenic Castle.
