NL235: Von Callantsog zur verlorenen Küste

From Callantsoog, the route passes through the marshland with its dikes and polders eastward towards Kolhorn. Kolhorn, with its small fishing harbor, was located on the Zuiderzee, a bay of the North Sea, until the mid-19th century. After land reclamation measures were implemented, polders were created that were quickly drained and settled by farmers. Today, Kolhorn lies about 17 km from the coast. In the picturesque center, there are still many houses of the former fishermen, small and low, crowded closely together. Kolhorn is considered one of the most beautiful villages in North Holland.
