Gita in bici di un giorno da Hoek van Holland a Rotterdam

This ride takes you from the breezy shores of Hoek van Holland all the way into the urban heart of Rotterdam—covering about 30 kilometers of easy, mostly flat cycling. Hoek van Holland is known as the "gateway to the sea," famous for its wide beaches and bustling ferry port connecting the Netherlands to the UK. You’ll roll out along smooth, mostly paved cycleways (so sleek, your tires will thank you), enjoying sea views and maybe the occasional salty breeze.

The route is super bike-friendly—almost entirely dedicated cycle paths with hardly any busy roads, making it perfect for a relaxed cruise. As you move inland, you’ll meander past green fields and charming suburbs before slipping into Rotterdam, a city bursting with modern architecture and cool cafés. The total elevation gain is hardly noticeable, so almost anyone can handle this route. End your ride admiring Rotterdam’s famous skyline, maybe stopping at the iconic Markthal or the Cube Houses for a quick photo op. Perfect for a half-day adventure with plenty to see at both ends!
