Handel en bedrijvigheid

See them there slumbering in the green: Apeldoorn, Beekbergen and Loenen. They seem filled with Veluwe tranquility, as if it has always been that way… Nothing could be further from the truth. This was once a region with glowing iron furnaces, grinding paper mills and steam trains!

See them there slumbering in the green: Apeldoorn, Beekbergen and Loenen. The Veluwe used to bubble, hiss and steam here at full speed! Where this region is now filled with tranquility, during the industrial revolution red-hot iron furnaces burned here, paper mills milled and steam trains steamed. Go back in time and cycle past the places that remind us of the trade and activity on the Veluwe.
