Want to explore with your Upway electric bike? Then this cycling junction route in the Vecht region is truly a gem. The route, shaped like an 8, takes you past special places and rich history, while you enjoy the comfort of your Upway e-bike.

You start your journey at the impressive Gunterstein Castle in Breukelen, an estate with roots dating back to the fourteenth century. Afterwards, you leisurely cycle past Fort Maarsseveen, a defensive structure from the New Dutch Waterline, with a beautiful view over the polder landscape. On your Upway electric bike, you zoom effortlessly along the Maarsseveense Vaart, once dug for the reclamation of the peat bog.

The route takes you further to Fort Tienhoven, now a nature reserve, and along the Nieuweweg, where the remnants of the inundations from World War II are still visible. In the Bethunepolder, you can see how land subsidence has shaped the landscape, evident at a bunker that now stands meters above the ground.

With your Upway bike, you can easily reach the Mill of Polder Buitenweg and the military landscape near Nedereindsevaart. At Vrijthof Oostwaard, you will discover the history of a former monastery outfarm, now a place for urban agriculture and culture.

The journey continues along Op Buuren-Buiten, a modern country house, and via Bolensteinsestraat to Maarssen-village, where you can experience the development of the village and its castles. This varied route is ideal for discovering history, nature, and culture in the heart of the Vecht region with your Upway electric bike.
