Highlights


  • Discover the Dutch coast by bike. The cycling route along the coast is about 570 kilometres long and leads past enchanting beaches, dunes, wadden islands and coastal villages.

  • Explore Keukenhof by bike! It is one of the world’s biggest flower gardens and is also known as Europe’s Garden. You will find flowers in every colour of the rainbow in the 32 hectare big garden and the carefully set up arrangements enchant every visitor.

  • A bike tour around the open-air museum  Zaanse Schans. There, you can admire the Netherland’s traditional symbol, the windmill, in all of its glory.

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.
