Paper here in Eerbeek

Tip: Combine this route with the cycling route Tour de Papier - not only are the two routes connected via the cycle junctions, the Veluwsche Steam Train Company will also take you to locations where the routes can be started this summer! More information at visitveluwe.nl/papier.
