Gita in bici di un giorno da Amsterdam a Hoorn

Ready for a scenic ride? Start your journey in the heart of Amsterdam, famous for its vibrant canals and bike-friendly culture. Leaving the city behind, you’ll cruise north along mostly dedicated cycleways—almost 82% of this route gives you your own safe space on two wheels. The ride is just under 50km, and the terrain is nearly pancake-flat, so you can take it easy and really enjoy the classic Dutch countryside.

Expect to pedal past green fields, windswept dikes, and sleepy villages as you make your way to Hoorn, a lovely historic town right on the IJsselmeer. Known for its golden age maritime history and old-world charm, Hoorn is a perfect spot to grab a coffee in a picturesque square or check out the harbor after your ride. About half the route is on paved surfaces—mostly smooth asphalt—so your trip should be a breeze.

All in all, this is a relaxed, beautiful route that’s well-suited for anyone, whether you’re a serious cyclist or just out for a leisurely day on the pedals!
