On Sunday March 22, 2015 the new GCCC season is starting in the beautiful and hospitable Salland region. Salland. Paul and Marchel invite you for a varied drive exploring the lovely and varied landscape. You’ll see castles, museums, and panoramas across the rivers Ijssel and Vecht, as well as small rivers and pretty picturesque towns and villages.
Where are the start and the finish?
From 12.00 h. you are welcome at restaurant De Barones, Gerner Es 5a, 7722 RX Dalfsen. This restaurant has ample parking space in its own grounds. Once inside, a cup of coffee or tea with some pastry will be waiting for you. Registration is until 12:30.
After the start we’ll cross the river Vecht. Ringing a bell? For ‘old’ GCCC members it will do. In 2007 we had a drive in this region as well, but the overlap with the present ride is very limited. There is so much more to be discovered! If you like, a stop can be made at the Nijenhuis Castle at Heino, well-known for its collection of statues and modern art. We’ll then cross the river IJssel by ferry. The charge for that is € 1,80 for car and driver, for each additional passenger € 0,40. From the ferry via Hattem we’re heading towards the old IJssel Bridge and cross it, which is followed by a nice bit of Zwolle, the Engelsewerk and the Katerveer lock. Then it’s back to De Barones.
