Cycle route: Cycling through polders on Tholen (29,18 km)

Tholen is a former island on the Oosterschelde. This unknown cycling gem is worth discovering. For example, you will find the historic town of Tholen!

Scherpenisse polder
The route starts at the edge of the Scherpenissepolder. Here you cycle along an unspoilt and bird-rich nature reserve that consists of saline soils. The Oosterschelde is on the right: climb up the dike to enjoy a beautiful view over the water, while enjoying the fresh air. At junction 40 there is a bird-rich nature reserve with salty and sweet grasslands on the left of the road: the Schakerloopolder.

Historic Tholen
Tholen is a town with a historic center that is still largely surrounded by ramparts and ramparts. You will find many monuments here, such as the beautiful sixteenth-century Onze Lieve Vrouwekerk. At the cozy Brasserie Kaeswienkeltje you can settle down for a delicious lunch. You can also stock up on some tasty cheeses here. On car-free roads you drive through the wide and quiet polders to the end point. How wonderful it is to cycle here!
