Nice quiet route along the canal.

In NL, cycling is simply fun because of the excellent ground surface and the general 'cyclist nature'.

The pronunciation is often incorrect, but with a hyphen, it's better: Bele-ven. There's plenty to experience, especially if you're a birdwatcher. A true paradise for many birds, the Spoonbill is also regularly spotted, and it's a breeding ground for various meadow birds. From a mammoth-shaped wooden platform, you have a magnificent view of Het Beleven. Sandy paths crisscross the nature reserve "Het Beleven" with wide verges and hedgerows; 'Suskes Klompenpedje' (7.5 km)—the name gives it away—you can follow the wooden clogs. A printed version of the route is available at the Hollandershoeve and Visit Reusel-De Mierden. Het Beleven is situated in a bowl-shaped depression. And to think, until recently, there were only corn fields here. The deep drainage ditches have been filled in, and the enriched soil has been largely removed. Source: Brabantslandschap.nl

It's just along the Wilhelmona Canal. There's really not much to it in itself; you're better off cycling into Orischot, which is much more fun.

A pleasant, relaxing cycling route. At the Stönner-Meijwaard Bridge in Oirschot, there's a sound column where you can listen to relive the events of World War II.

The border marker is currently covered. Why? I have no idea, but it's covered in a thick plastic cover.

A lovely cycle path where you can cycle at speed, with plenty of shade, so even on very sunny days it's a pleasant ride. And then, suddenly, you're in Best in no time.
