Enjoy sun, wind and water & delicious fresh from the region! Grab your bike and experience the green IJsselvallei, a vast area between the forests of the Hoge Veluwe and the river IJssel, with Lake Bussloo in the heart of the region.
Residents of the region have created three cycling routes, which, like the river IJssel, meander through the beautiful landscape. There are many fun and tasty treats to enjoy along the way. There is a route for cyclists from Apeldoorn, Deventer and a route from Zutphen. The routes are on average 45 km long. You can of course also combine them and cycle a longer route.
From Zutphen you cycle along the IJssel through meadows and villages into the vast land of the Voorster Klei, a fertile area with a varied landscape. De Hoven is located just outside Zutphen, with traditional fruit and greenhouses. On the higher parts you will find beautiful old farms. To give the river more space, a number of farms have been moved and integrated nicely into the landscape. A variety of fresh produce from the region is for sale. From cheese and meat on the farm to fruit and jam at country shops. Have fun!
