Route Summary
The Splodertocht, this is a tour that was previously held annually. The trip is made, organized and driven by people who live in the area or come from Espelo, a hamlet of the municipality of Holten. Motorcyclists from Holten and Nieuw-Heeten are also often present. It is a day trip that often includes a duo passenger (usually a dear wife). Every year they try to find a few people who can or want to put together an exciting route.
The meeting point and the start of the route is at Café Vosman in Nieuw-Heeten.
I drove this route on 19-06-2016.

RouteXpert Review
This route with the start and end point in Nieuw-Heeten in Overijssel goes through Twente, the Achterhoek and even a tip of Germany. The route takes you, among other things, to the Monument for the raids of October 14, 1944. If you follow the path to the left of the monument, after about 500 meters you will see a hiding hut from the 2nd World War on the right. Where this is located is indicated by a sign. During the Second World War, several people in hiding were in this Hiding hut, in the woods near Holten, including Dutch men who had fled the German Arbeitseinsatz

You will also pass through the beautiful town of Diepenheim.
Diepenheim is a town in the municipality of Hof van Twente in the Dutch province of Overijssel, located on the Regge. Diepenheim is also one of the eight medieval cities in Twente. It is also a center for the visual arts and is known for its castles and possessions and the landscaped gardens and parks (Source: Wikipedia).
Even the adventure / recreation park Selvink Molen (popularly known as Sevink Mölle) on this route is worth a visit.
It is a park consisting of a campsite, pancake mill, Burgundian grill restaurant, bungalow park, group accommodation, beach pavilion 't Hilgelo and since late 2011 expanded with a themed play paradise, called Sevink Adventure Park. The eye-catcher of the company is a monumental mill built in 1866, which is now on the national monument list.
Recreation park Sevink Molen is located in the scenic landscape of the Achterhoek and near Winterswijk. The recreation park borders directly on the versatile Hilgelo recreation area.
The 2nd part of the ride takes you past a V1 launch site during WW II. Only a small part of the second launch track in Joppe is visible. There is, however, an informational sign next to it that provides a very limited explanation of the V1 (Source: Bunkerinfo).
During the route you will pass various places where you can have a cup of coffee or to stop for a photo.
I have included a few places in the details.
I have given the route 5 stars because I think it is a very beautiful route, a nice day out.
