A beautiful journey dedicated to freedom! 

The Freedom Ride is the ultimate cycling liberation festival. This year marks the 10th edition, where cycling enthusiasts gather in Arnhem to ride past historic sites connected to our wartime history. 

Cyclists can choose the peloton ride of 115 km or one of the open tours of 70, 110, or 150 km, all starting from Arnhem. For other cycling enthusiasts, there is a recreational ride of 40 km, also starting from Arnhem. Additionally, there is the Rabo Dikke Banden Race, so children can also take part in the Freedom Ride. Participation for kids is free.
