Operation Market Garden Cycling Route
Stretching from Leopoldsburg in Belgium to the renowned "Bridge too far" in Arnhem, the Netherlands, the Market Garden area is littered with points of interest related to one of the largest Allied operations of the Second World War. Along the way, cyclists will encounter monuments, cemeteries, landmarks, audio stories, and remembrance sites. This is a unique opportunity to learn more about the operation, commemorate and pay tribute to those who lost their lives, as well as reflect on the liberation of Europe.
