Apeldoorn - Between Forests and Fields

Apeldoorn is situated in the middle of the beautiful Veluwe and is well known for its unique combination of culture and nature with urban vibrancy. Discover nature on your bicycle - via gravel path, cobblestones, or sleek asphalt and visit the surrounding villages in the municipality. Situated on the boundary of the famous nature reserve De Hoge Veluwe National Park, there is a lot to see and explore. Lush green no matter which direction you go, wide fields and tense forests, quiet canals and winding rivers. We put together 7 routes around Apeldoorn for you to discover some new gravel paths but also to experience the road feeling still. In the range of 35 to 90 kilometers, most tours revolve around the sweet 50 k mark and take just into the forests on Apeldoorn’s doorstep or all the way up to Zwolle. Whatever your legs feel like today, grab your gravel bike or your road machine and set out to explore.
