Discover all benefitsIn Midden-Limburg there are many gravel roads, ideal for taking a Strade Bianche ride in the Tuscan style, only here without hills but through many nature reserves that the region is rich in.
The route starts in Meijel at the roundabout at Noordervaart and consists for 51% of gravel roads and gravel bike paths, which can also be easily cycled with a road bike with 28 mm wide puncture-proof tires (and in good conditions with 25 mm puncture-proof tires). Mini-camping de Peelweide between Grashoek and Helenaveen, accessible via a short gravel road that makes you assume it is private property (but the owners of the campsite see it as a public road), is an ideal break spot after 38 kilometers.
You will cycle successively over the following unpaved roads (gravel roads and gravel bike paths):
- along the Drainage Canal,
- along the nature reserve Spaanse Bos (near Heibloem),
- through the nature reserve Waterbloem,
- through the nature reserves Bovensbos and Keuperheide,
- through the nature reserve Heldense Bossen,
- through the nature reserve Vlakbroek,
- through the nature reserve Marisberg,
- along the Helenavaart,
- and ending along the canal of Deurne transitioning into the Noordervaart.
