Tips
- Never walk on the cycling lanes. The Dutch are known for their love of bikes and don’t stop pedaling - for no one.
- It is forbidden to ride a bike when drunk, which can lead to high fines.
- The entire Netherlands are pervaded by country-wide cycling routes, the so-called LF-routes. They are clearly signposted and are well suited for several-day-long tours. Â
