The Niers Cycling Route, a 128-kilometer signposted route that winds through the Lower Rhine cultural landscape, has received an upgrade. The new fold-out map for the Niers Cycling Route is now available, offering an enhanced cycling experience for those traversing this picturesque region.
This collaborative effort between the district of Viersen, the economic development agency of the district of Kleve, the municipality of Gennep, and the city of Mönchengladbach has resulted in a comprehensive and user-friendly map. The new fold-out map is an updated version of the original information material, combining the three separate flyers into one cohesive resource.
The map provides a clear and graphic representation of the route's course, making it easier for cyclists to navigate. It also contains general information and tourist attractions along the Niers in both German and Dutch. This multilingual feature caters to the diverse cyclists who visit the region from both Germany and the Netherlands.
The "Cross-border Renewal of Information Materials for the Niers Cycling Route" project is funded by the Interreg Germany-Netherlands program and its partner organizations, and is co-financed by the European Union (EU). This funding underscores the importance of cross-border collaboration and the EU's commitment to promoting sustainable tourism in the region.
