Route Summary The 173 ANWB Promotor TankTasTochten (TTT) were scanned by Henry ten Dam and drawn in Mapsource by Leon Stolk and later placed as a Track in a .gpx file. These have been made available via the MrGPS website with the approval of ANWB Promotor so that everyone can enjoy them. The 1st TTT is from 1992, so the route may differ slightly from the original.
I have checked all waypoints and placed them neatly on the road where necessary. Also, if necessary, I have spaced the start point and end point of the route a bit further apart to avoid navigating directly to the end point and added the POI files of the start and end point as well as a possible stop.
Finally, I made the route the same for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation users.
Thanks to Henry, Leon, MrGPS and Promoter.
!06-02-2023: Route adjusted due to closures around Soesterberg.

RouteXpert Review The Utrechtse Heuvelrug is a sand ridge in the landscape of the Dutch provinces Utrecht and Noord-Holland between the peripheral lakes in the northwest and the Rhine in the southeast. The contours of the long ridge running from Huizen to Rhenen are clearly visible everywhere. The Utrechtse Heuvelrug has several 'peaks' above 50 meters. The highest point is the Amerongse Berg with 69.2 meters above sea level. The southernmost point is the Grebbeberg.
The Utrechtse Heuvelrug has a lot of forest. In addition, we find a number of heathlands and some shifting sands. The area stretches from the Gooimeer to the Nederrijn over a total length of approximately 50 km. The total area is approximately 23,000 hectares. This makes it the largest forest area in the Netherlands after the Veluwe.

You will pass include Soesterberg Air Base:
Soesterberg Air Base was a military airfield near Soesterberg, between Utrecht and Amersfoort. The airport was the cradle of military aviation in the Netherlands; in 1913 the Aviation Department (LVA) of the army made its first flights here. Due to cuts in defense, the base was closed and closed in November 2008. The largest part of it has since been managed as a nature reserve: the Park Vliegbasis Soesterberg.
Soesterberg air base has been laid out on the Sandr van Soesterberg, an almost flat range of sand and gravel, which has been rinsed out during the Saalian, the penultimate ice age.

Because I have not driven this route (yet) myself, this route gets 3 stars.

These 10 routes in the Netherlands have been carefully selected, checked and made equal for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation by a MyRoute-app RouteXpert. The 10 most beautiful motorcycle and car routes in the Netherlands are always a snapshot, and a personal opinion of the reviewer.

The ten routes are spread over 10 provinces, we only skipped Flevoland and South Holland. Interesting routes can also be found in the MyRoute app RouteXpert library, but we still want to stick to the 10 most beautiful and not the 12 most beautiful.
Enjoy the many fortresses and castles that are included in the routes, such as Fort Veldhuis in North Holland. But also take a look at the route southeast of Nijmegen and visit the impressive Canadian War Cemetery and Memorial. The route 'Overijssel in bird's eye view' includes the oldest house in the Netherlands and the route along the IJssel is probably the most beautiful piece of asphalt in the Netherlands.
This way there is something for everyone in this route collection. If you do not agree with these 10 routes, please send us an e-mail, indicate which route(s) should be removed and which route you would like to see instead.
