À vélo de Delft à Rotterdam

This scenic cycling route takes you from the charming university city of Delft to the vibrant hub of Rotterdam. It’s about 17 km—perfect for an easy ride, mostly on smooth cycleways and quiet roads, with just a little gentle ascent, so you don’t have to worry about any big hills.

Starting in Delft, you can enjoy the historic canals, the iconic Nieuwe Kerk, and a relaxed Dutch-city vibe. Roll out of town and you’ll be riding through typically flat Dutch countryside, mostly surrounded by fields, waterways, and the occasional windmill. The route is almost entirely on dedicated bike paths, so it’s great for a relaxed cruise, whether you’re a regular cyclist or just out for a day’s adventure.

You’ll finish in Rotterdam, the Netherlands’ modern architectural wonder, known for its bold skyline, lively riverfront, and cool urban scene. There’s plenty to see and do at both ends of this ride, so bring your camera and take your time—the journey really is as nice as the destination!
