Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Lemmer do Koudum

Hop on your bike in Lemmer, a charming waterside town famous for its cozy harbor and the iconic Woudagemaal steam pumping station—perfect for a pre-ride photo! Your journey rolls west through Friesland’s classic flat polder landscape. With over 88% paved surfaces (mostly smooth asphalt), this is the kind of route that invites relaxed pedaling and sightseeing.

The way is mostly along quiet roads and cycleways (lucky you!), winding past meadows, canals, and those wide open Dutch skies. Keep an eye out for grazing cows and the occasional windmill—after all, this is Friesland.

There’s barely any climb (just over 31 meters ascent in total), so it’s a breeze even if you’re not chasing Strava times. About halfway in you’ll skirt through peaceful villages and rural backroads—ideal spots for a quick snack picnic.

As you arrive in Koudum, notice how the landscape gently rises—just enough for a sweeping view over the farmlands. Koudum itself is a lovely village known for its annual flower parade and proximity to the Frisian lakes, so it’s a sweet spot to end your ride. Enjoy!
