City tours

Life in Helmond consists of more than just living and working. There are numerous opportunities for leisure and recreation as well.

You can see every part of the city by bike via the popular, signposted route “Rondje Helmond”. Ramblers are also generously catered for in Helmond. A specially drawn up city route and a route past the city's many superb statues are two exceptional examples.

Literary walk

Then there is the ‘literary walk’. This leads past prominent sites in the centre, where the rambler will find lines of poetry or fragments of prose on walls, facades or behind glass.

Nature

A ramble through the nature areas in and around the city is definitely recommended. Just outside the municipal boundaries are extensive nature areas, such as the Strabrechtse Heide moors and the Groote Peel nature reserve. These are ideal places for experiencing the peace and space that this part of Brabant can still offer.
