The Landscape

The Lemelerberg is a moraine hill in the Vechtdal, formed during the penultimate Ice Age. An enormous glacier forcefully pushed sand and gravel ahead of it, creating a massive mound. From an elevation of approximately 80 meters, you can enjoy a panoramic view over Overijssel and, on clear days, even into Germany. This undulating area is known for its beautiful heathlands, expansive forests, and shifting sand plains. The Reggedal area is a diverse sandy landscape traversed by the rivers Vecht and Regge. Here, you can discover ancient meanders, river valley grasslands, elevated sandy soils with idyllic fens, and the last remaining drifting sands of Overijssel. This cycling route provides the perfect opportunity to explore the diverse nature in these two distinct landscapes.
