• The Hanseatic League, a union of trading cities, synonymous for trade and adventure, for tradesmen travelling the known world for all kinds of goods, to transport, to trade.

  A first series of Hanseatic towns we find in the IJsselvalley. The town of Deventer is our start town. During the first part of the route we visit a number of Hanseatic towns along the rivers, a.o. Venlo and Cologne. A nice flat route through the valleys of the Maas and Rhine. But it doesn’t stay that flat, after Cologne we’ll leave the Rhine Valley and cut through via a number of beautiful natural parcs to Braunschweig.

  To make it all a bit easier there will be a staffed control at the junction in or near Braunschweig. Here you can sleep and use our drop bag service. Until the supply point there is no difference between the 1200 and 2100.

  In this extra-long 2100km variant you will ride from Braunschweig to Rostock, Lübeck and Hamburg, three Hanseatic cities of stature. After this tour you return to Braunschweig. For this loop of 900km you get 120 hours extra time compared to the 1200km variant. If you then also consider that after the staffed control you'll ride mainly through the North German Lowlands, then the step between 1200km and 2100km is well worth considering.

  From Braunschweig, all routes then cross Bremen, Oldenburg, Groningen and Zwolle. We choose the easy way back, through flat country.
