About This Route

It is wonderfully quiet walking in the Dutch lowlands. This route also takes you through old towns such as De Rijp and Oost-Graftdijk. What a nice cultural history you will find here! The ripe For several centuries, De Rijp was a prosperous town thanks to whaling and herring fishing. You can still see some of that prosperity when you walk past the beautiful old buildings in the Rechtestraat. You can also see some monuments in the adjacent Graft. Then you walk into the wide polders. It is nice and quiet to walk here. Ideal for catching up with friends or family. Eastern Graftdijk In West-Graftdijk you will pass Europarcs Resort de Rijp, a nice holiday park with a good restaurant. You walk back into the countryside over the dike along the canal. In the picturesque Oost-Graftdijk you can see the village church from 1840 with a wooden turret. You will also pass a completely wooden workers' house from 1877. Behind this house is a unique hatred shed: Generations of Graftdijkers earned a living by denouncing hemp for rope-making.
