We help you to discover Europe on your bicycle

However, we hope to make our booklets useful for you by giving a translation of the most commonly used words, symbols and abbreviations that are needed to find your way. In the download file symbols.pdf (63 kB) we present you the symbols and abbreviations in the right format to cut out, and glue to the little flap at the backside cover of the guide.

The text describing landscape and cultural highlights, is only provided in Dutch. We nevertheless hope you will enjoy cycling with our ‘Europafietser’ guides and await your comments.

• Knots between the former give you the opportunity to plan round trips.
