The Neder-Betuwe and the Tielerwaard together form a classic river landscape where fruit growing, water and dikes set the rhythm. In spring, blossom turns the orchards soft white and pink, while later in the season you ride past trees heavy with ripe fruit and farmhouses that remain an integral part of this landscape.

At the heart of this route lies the Linge, a river that meanders in long bends through the flat landscape, continually revealing new views. Around Geldermalsen, the route follows dike roads, embankments and drainage channels that have shaped the area, with reed beds, willow coppices and riverbanks forming green edges along the water. This way, you cycle through a varied mix of open polder landscapes and more sheltered stretches, with regular views of linear villages and farmsteads along the dike.
