Roll out of Hulst and past De Stadsmolen, a windmill, before Vesting Hulst, the castle, sets the tone. Then the route opens into the Moervaartdepressie nature reserve and follows the Stekense Vaart canal. With 62.5 km under your wheels and just 132 m of climbing, it flows from canal to canal. The Moervaart canal leads you back to Hulst.
