The region Kop van Overijssel guarantees a pleasant cycling tour in a varied landscape with lakes and pools, extensive reed beds, swamplands with countless birds and numerous wooded banks in a countryside with historical farmhouses. The route leads you for example through the wetland nature reserve of Staphorsterveld, through the extensive lake areas and the marshlands of the National Park Weerribben-Wieden, through the beautiful and historic landscape of the Hoge Land van Vollenhove and through a dense wooded area of the province of Flevoland: the varied forest area of the Kadoelerbos along the ancient coastline of the lake IJsselmeer.
