Since the last ice age, the Linde River has meandered through the Stellingwerf landscape. The river rises near the hamlet of Tronde in Ooststellingwerf and, before the construction of the Noordoostpolder, flowed into the sea near Kuinre. In the Middle Ages, the Linde served as the northern boundary of the bishopric of Utrecht. Today, it forms part of the border between Ooststellingwerf and Weststellingwerf, and further afield, the provincial border between Friesland and Overijssel.

The cycle route takes you along the beautiful Linde. Many different bird species can be found here, but the flora is also worth a visit. The bike path is nice and wide.
