Discover all benefits(This is the shortened version of the Enclave route).
Today you cycle through the strangest village in the world: 30 pieces of Belgium and the Netherlands are intertwined - the village of Baarle. These puzzle pieces are called enclaves. What is an enclave? An enclave is a part of a country that is completely surrounded by the territory of another country. At the level of the Baarle puzzle, it proved impossible to determine the border.
After Belgian independence, it was not until 1843 that the official national border between Belgium and the Netherlands was established. Only in 1974 was this gap in the border closed. Since 1995, the borders of the 30 enclaves form the official national border.
