Utrecht, Zeist, Vleuten

Be surprised by the diversity of the province of Utrecht. The Dom tower and the canals are beautiful, but did you know that there is so much more beauty around this city? During this route, you will cycle through town, village, forest, park, polder and along the water. And that's not all, there is also a lot of history around the city.

To protect the city of Utrecht, forts were built in the 19th century. You will come across a number of these forts along the way. Where 200 years ago the aim was to keep the enemy out, nowadays they invite you in. Take a walk around the forts, immerse yourself in the life of the soldiers and learn the history.

The Romans were also very active in this area. The rich history and archaeological finds from that time can be discovered along the way at Castellum Hoge Woerd.

Of course, they had already realised that this is a beautiful area. The area was therefore a favourite spot for the rich. So don't be surprised if you come across imposing castles, country houses and country estates along the way.
The varied green surroundings around the city have enough to offer for a lovely cycle route, so jump on your bike!
