The expansive agricultural landscape around Landen is interwoven with Roman and early medieval history: burial mounds, defensive mounds, an archaeological site, and historic farmsteads. You’ll cross the Kleine Gete twice. Stop by the Rufferdinge Experience Center and learn all about technology and hydropower in the old watermill. At the Sinte Gitter archaeological site, you’ll find the remains of two Merovingian graves from the 7th century. This bike route is at its most beautiful during the cherry blossom season.
