    On Thursday (June 16, 2022, public holiday / Corpus Christi) we drove the tour from Kranenburg (DE) to Groesbeek (NL) and back with the entire family. I can say in advance that all age groups (5-75 years) really enjoyed it. One route is approx. 5.5km long and leads beautifully past fields and farms. We rode on a large trolley. Here four people can pedal as if on a bicycle and everyone else can sit comfortably at the table. You can bring your own food and there are practical cup/bottle holders built into the table. There are a few streets to cross on the route. But this is very easy to use. The route from Kranenburg to Groesbeek is slightly “uphill”, which you only really feel on the return journey from Groesbeek to Kranenburg. You simply have to pedal less. Thanks to the height-adjustable seats, children from a height of 1.50m can also pedal along easily. Has on the entire route There is always time to stop briefly and change drivers. We ourselves had a large dog with us who sat comfortably under a bench on the trolley and was able to enjoy the ride. The trip is really recommended and entertaining.

    Great experience for groups. Were here with the parents teacher child leisure. There is plenty of space on the large trolleys. Snacks or games are possible without any problems. The journey there was really strenuous, as it was quite slightly uphill. The return journey was very relaxed and quick. We all had a lot of fun despite the unsettled weather. Unreservedly recommended!

    What a fantastic experience! And also very tough when it comes to exercise. Highly recommended.

    We booked a trolley ride here followed by archery. A trolley ride like this is something chilling and fun. Enjoy a leisurely drive around the area with a drink, music and something to eat. At the final stop in Groesbeek in Holland, you can stroll through the town and shop for Dutch specialties. Every street crossing with the trolley is exciting and fun.

    Great fun, had a party trolley for 14 people. Are from Kranenburg to Kleve, journey time about 75 minutes, there tour of Schwanenburg and back with the last trolley. Just great!

    Amazing fun. A group of four of us went from Kranenburg to Kleve and back. It took about 1 hour 20 minutes each way but we did go quite fast. we had 30 minutes for some lunch in Kleve. If you want a shorter cycle you can go to Groesbeek instead as it is just over half the distance but still the same price with fewer crossings. Kleve seemed the better option for us. The many level crossings on the Kleve section really add to the experience, having to stop to open the barriers and press the button to change the lights to stop the traffic. On the day we did it there was lots of rain and they offered to rearrange it to another day. We couldn’t do this so went anyway and were the only people mad enough to be out on the line that afternoon. We got soaked through but it was well worth it. Such a great idea.

    A trip on a trolley is something different. Riding with muscle power over an almost straight route lined with more or less shady bushes and trees in the midday sun is sweaty for even experienced cyclists, as there are no parasols on any of the trolleys, let alone a gear shift for those chosen to pedal. If you can live with this fact, after another short briefing by the specialist staff, the whole thing is worth the experience. There is also information material available for download on the website. There is also a toilet which you can use without catching anything. You should do that too, as the route can ultimately drag on. After about half the route you cross the Dutch border. Ultimately, nothing changes in terms of the rules of conduct such as: B. crossing the streets or operating the barriers. Once you have finally reached your destination, it offers normal shopping opportunities and attractions. There are also various options for stopping off. Of course, this is not absolutely necessary if you have stocked up on provisions before the trip or plan to stop somewhere after your return. Direct parking on site, which would be possible if there were enough parking spaces, is only clouded by the fact that it easily takes more than two hours. So if you don't want your car towed when you return, you should use the existing parking spaces a little further away. All in all, a planned trip with this attraction is a matter of taste but definitely worth the experience.

    Scenic travel through an old railway track by pedalling a small wagon. Little tiring. Depends on how good you like biking.

    Anyone who has the chance should have done it once

  • 5/5 Christian S. 8 months ago on Google • 117 reviews
    First of all: the team tries everything to have a nice experience and to somehow find free places, even on weekends - I recommend calling every now and then. Super super nice. Now to the route: easy to drive, time is easy to estimate and the landscape is beautiful. The cyclists on and off the route are also very nice. We had fun two days in a row and tried out both routes. Toilets and restaurants are good at all stations.

    Even though it was a bit strenuous at times (two-wheeler), it was fun... you're spoiled by gears and e-bikes 😎 will be repeated... 💖

    Really great ride if you like to peddle. You travel through the countryside as fast or slow as you want. Your peddling..lol it was a fun ride and thank God we had the kids with us.

  • 5/5 Stijn de B. 5 years ago on Google
    A really fun way to travel between the cities with great views. Overall a great experience.

  • 5/5 Travelography h. 4 years ago on Google
    An absolute must in this area. Take some food and drinks with you and enjoy the ride. Its very easy and not soo much effort. Carry some anti insect bite spray

  • 4/5 Jarik (. 4 years ago on Google
    Definitely fun to do with some friends, it was a little bit too hot but on days where it's just nice weather to be outside it can be awesome

  • 5/5 Ronald R. 4 years ago on Google
    It's great fun to ride on the train track. A must do if you are visiting Kleve, Kranenburg or Groesbeek

  • 3/5 Anthony V. 6 years ago on Google
    A scenic outing through the countryside on a pedal train. You can either go into the Netherlands, Groesbeck and walk around the square and get a coffee or head in the other direction, into the city of Kleve.

    We really enjoyed this bike route from Kranenburg to Kleve with the family. We shared 2 bikes with 6 people which was perfect to also take turns. It was a beautiful route with fields, forests and especially the last part near Kleve was beautiful. There is not a lot of tree cover so take rain gear if the weather is bad. Although the bike cart is large the biking itself was quite light and didn't cost much force. It took us about 1.5 hours to do the 10km, including the stops with each road we had to cross. There was a small confusion about our booking, we were ready at 9 am to start, but only 9.15 someone of the organisation arrived, which was a bit confusing. And the explanation was 100% in German so be prepared :)

    Loved cycling from Nederland to Germany but we had to boost the draisinie in front of us as we cycled faster than them

  • 5/5 bart van der v. 4 years ago on Google
    We went when it was 30 degrees (I do not recommend this). The ride is really nice but better when it is not 30 degrees.

  • 4/5 cle i. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice to bike together and work as a team to safely pass the crossings. Easy to talk with each other because no steering involved 😁

  • 5/5 Kory M. 1 year ago on Google
    Fun thing to do. Weather was hot so don't recommend that but otherwise worth it to do.

  • 4/5 Alexander T. 1 year ago on Google
    Very interested and beautiful travel!

  • 4/5 Khalid El N. 1 year ago on Google
    A very nice ride. Best with a big group. Unfortunately we didn't have much time to walk around the city in Netherlands. The only thing I didn't like is that the trees on the sides and on the track it self need to be trimmed.
