Garderen, Ouwendorp, Boeschoten

Jump on your bike in the picturesque village of Garderen for this curved cycle route. From the southern part of Garderen, you cycle the first kilometres towards Kootwijk. After seeing a lot of (crooked) cycle paths and farms, you cycle through the northern part of Garderen. Soon, you cycle out of the village towards the Speulderbos. The special thing about this forest is that a large part of the trees are crooked. Why? In the past, many trees were cut down to make boats. The wood from the crooked trees could not be used and was therefore spared. This results in a lot of nice pictures!

Via small villages like Houtdorp, Drie and Boeschoten you slowly cycle in the direction of De Beeldentuin. You can spend the rest of your afternoon at this drop-off point. Eat and drink something at lunchroom de Rozentuin, admire the sculptures in the Sculpture Garden and visit 't Veluws Zandsculpturenfestijn.
