Terrace route for pleasure seekers
Boxtel, Oisterwijk, Esch
Total relaxation awaits you on this cycling route around Boxtel. Along the way, you’ll pass plenty of inviting terraces where you can truly enjoy yourself. Fresh coffee and cake, a tasty lunch, or a late afternoon drink; you’ll experience it all outdoors. And if you love special beers, Brabant’s cafés have you covered. Every restaurant has a wide selection, so there's something for everyone. You’ll find terraces in several spots: from the town centres of Oisterwijk, Boxtel and Haaren to the small village of Esch. The route is intentionally not too long, so there’s plenty of time to unwind in the sun. Sun worshippers can even chill out on a little beach along the way. Alternate cosy cafés with beautiful nature reserves and castles. Once you pass Esch, you cycle past old farms, stately country houses, orchards and fields into the Kampina nature reserve. This area is known for its fens and small lakes breaking up the dry heath. Love birds? Keep your eyes open, you might spot rare species here. Castle Stapelen and Castle Nemerlaer are wonderful sights that tell stories from the past. Discover fairytale legends and historical events in these stunning locations. And don’t forget to stop by the Saint Peter’s Basilica, a beautiful 18th-century church. Curious about all the terraces and sights waiting for you along the way? Hop on your bike and explore!
