Route Summary
Since the beginning of the 1990s, Promotor has been issuing the so-called TankTasTochten. You understand that the name is still from the GPS-free era, when motorcyclists still searched their way on inland roads with a road book in the tank bag or routerol. The 173 ANWB Promoter TankTasTochten (TTT) were scanned by Henry ten Dam and signed by Leon Stolk in Mapsource and later placed as a Track in a .gpx file. These have been made available with the approval of ANWB Promotor via the website of MrGPS so that everyone can enjoy it. The 1st TTT is from 1992, so the route may be slightly different from the original.
I checked all route points and placed them neatly on the road. Also, if necessary, I have put the start point and end point of the route a bit further apart to avoid navigating directly to the end point and I have added the POI files from the start and end point just like a possible stopping point.
Finally, I created the route for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation users.
With thanks to Henry, Leon, MrGPS and Promoter.

RouteXpert Review
This TTT starts at the Pyramid of Austerlitz * in Woudenberg and goes along the Lower Rhine to Heteren and then via the National Park the Veluwezoom and the National Park De Hoge Veluwe to the final destination in Stroe. * The Pyramid of Austerlitz is a 36 meter high pyramid of earth, built in 1804 by Napoleonic soldiers at the Botterstop, one of the highest points of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug, in the municipality of Woudenberg. On top of the pyramid is a stone obelisk from 1894. (Source: Wikipedia).
In the National Park the Veluwezoom you go over the Posbank **, at the pavilion you can stop for a cup of coffee or a lunch or just enjoy the surroundings and take some pictures.
** The Posbank at Rheden is the name of a monumental bank and a neighboring tea house, on the edge of the Herikhuizerveld, an overgrown moraine on the southern Veluwe. The site has a height of 90 meters above sea level with a view over the IJsseldal, Arnhem, the Achterhoek and the Liemers to Germany. (Source: Wikipedia).
Because I have driven large parts of this route myself, this route gets 4 stars.
