Elfstedenroute 09: Sexbierum – Franeker

Short and flat spin on the Elfstedenroute. Roll out from terp village Sexbierum and cruise past open Frisian fields to historic Franeker. It’s fully paved with mostly quiet roads and cycle paths, so easy riding—the only climb is the wind. In Franeker, park by the canals or pop into the Eise Eisinga Planetarium. A neat little link in stage 09, perfect as a warm-up or family ride.
