Castle route through the Meierij
Berlicum, Sint-Michielsgestel, Maaskantje
This cycle route through the Meierij of Den Bosch feels like a journey through time. As you ride through the green landscape, impressive castles appear, each with stories of knights, noble families and centuries old traditions.
You pass the mighty Heeswijk Castle with its strong towers and moat, and the elegant Castle Maurick in Vught that rises from the water like a fairytale. Castle Nieuw Herlaer on the river Dommel makes you feel like the Middle Ages are just around the corner.
Alongside the castles you also discover other special places with just as much charm. The mysterious ruins of Seldensate recall a long lost estate, while Huis de Wamberg and the historic Out Herlaer farm give the landscape a quiet and timeless feel. They show that the Meierij is not only grand and noble but also refined and rural.
To top it all off, you cycle past the Museum Romeins Halder where you learn that this region holds even older stories from the time when the Romans lived here.
This route is a unique mix of culture, nature and history. It is perfect for those who love cycling and stories because every castle, building and ruin adds a new chapter to the rich heritage of the Meierij.
