The Berkel near Almen

Highlight • River

Somewhat hidden on the map, there is a small bridge over the Berkel (even officially a cycle path) and a small hut on the bank for a break.

Twentekanaal Metal Truss Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Beautiful bridge, nice and narrow and does look a bit American. At least I've seen such a bridge in a documentary on GCN.

Reeverdijkerzandweg

Highlight • Trail

Nice long dirt road with gravel single track next to it. Continues for several kilometers. Purple route MTB is next to it. Connecting to the Deventerdijk is fun.

Route of the website of the Swallows, with a few adjustments. A beautiful piece of Achterhoek!

Tour from Deventer towards the Achterhoek. Because I went out with a navigation device for the first time (Garmin Edge 530), I didn't plan a ride myself for the sake of convenience, but used one from Hanneke Brouwer. See komoot.nl/tour/641831598
