Explore the Achterhoek by bike using the numbered junction network
The ANWB Achterhoek cycling map no. 11 is designed for discovering one of the most authentic regions of the eastern Netherlands by bike. Located in the province of Gelderland, the Achterhoek is renowned for its polder landscapes, dikes, rivers, and historic villages. This map is based on the famous Dutch numbered junction system (knooppunten), a network that makes it easy to create your own route.
The principle is simple: each intersection in the cycle network is associated with a number. Before setting off, simply note the sequence of numbers corresponding to your desired route. On the ground, clear signage guides cyclists from one junction to the next. This method makes navigation particularly intuitive, even for travelers unfamiliar with reading a map.
With its 1:100,000 scale, this map offers an excellent overview for planning day trips or longer tours in the region. It covers the areas around Arnhem, Zutphen, and Winterswijk, while also connecting to other parts of the Dutch cycling network.
The map also includes the LF (Landelijke Fietsroutes), the major national cycling routes that crisscross the Netherlands. These long-distance routes are ideal for cycle tourists wishing to explore several regions of the country. Thanks to this map, it is therefore easy to connect local loops to the national routes.
In addition to the cycling network, the map presents various useful information for planning a cycling trip or holiday: tourist sites, museums, restaurants, and other points of interest. This information helps you plan your breaks and discover the cultural and natural heritage of the Achterhoek region.
Lightweight and foldable, this map is easy to carry in a handlebar bag or jersey pocket. It is a practical tool for all cycling enthusiasts in the Netherlands, whether for a day ride or a more ambitious cycling trip.
Like the road signs, the legend and information are in Dutch, making it easy to match the map with the signs encountered on cycle paths.
