Description by the author

Cycling from Ravels-Eel via the "Bels lijntje" to the most remarkable village Baarle, where 30 pieces of Belgium and the Netherlands are intertwined, forming the village of Baarle-Hertog and Baarle-Nassau.

You can shorten the route at junction 51 and ride to Poppel.

We follow the "Smuggler's Route" and make a detour to Zondereigen where we are reminded of WW1 with a reconstruction of the switching house K5 and the peace monument the Death Wire. We continue to the "Bels lijntje" until Baarle-Hertog and Baarle-Nassau.
Routing Recreational cycling, Cycling - junctions, Recreational cycling - most beautiful

You can shorten the route by 10 km. Then follow the direction to junction 40, Poppel at junction 51.
