Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Sleen do Borger

This scenic ride takes you from the charming village of Sleen up to Borger, covering just over 26 km through the peaceful Drenthe countryside. You’ll mostly stick to smooth cycleways and quiet roads, so it’s perfect for a relaxed outing or an extended workout.

Sleen is known for its historic village feel; check out the 12th-century church before you head out.

Along the way, you’ll pass through classic Drenthe farmland and forests, with plenty of spots to stop and take in the views.

Keep an eye out as you reach Borger—it’s famous for the largest hunebed (ancient stone tomb) in the Netherlands, a must-see for anyone interested in local history. The mix of paved and concrete surfaces keeps your ride smooth, and with so many dedicated cycleways, you’ll mostly avoid traffic. Enjoy the fresh air and peaceful landscapes!
