The Via Ro­mana - Ex­per­i­ence Ro­man His­tory

Six days, round trip by bi­cycle on the trail of the Ro­mans

On your exciting journey through time by bicycle, not only will you come across the traces of Roman history, which are well worth seeing, but also the unique beauty of the region along the Rhine and Waal rivers. From your peacefully located guesthouse in Kranenburg, you embark on two daily tours to the Netherlands. One leads to Cuijk. On another tour, you explore the charming oldest city in the Netherlands, Nijmegen. 
Then on to the little town of Kalkar. This rich, self-contained medieval townscape will captivate you. Your tour to Xanten will make quite an impression. At LVR-RömerMuseum and the large thermal baths you can experience up close and personal how the ancient Romans really lived.
