Dutch through and through! Enjoy the bulb fields and the beautiful Dutch beaches. Pick up the cozy Callantsoog along the way and your day out is complete!

Callants eye
Your route starts at Juttersmuseum Callantsoog, a museum with special collections of treasures found from the sea. After a nice cup of coffee with cake, you put on your hiking boots. You first walk to the beach - the sea lures after such a special museum! You walk along the water to the center of cozy Callantsoog, with the beautiful Reformed Church from 1580. The beautifully finished tower dates from 1671.

Flower fields
Then you dive into the polder and discover the old dikes and quiet country roads behind the North Holland coast. In the spring there are plenty of tulips, daffodils and hyacinths in the bulb fields. It is so beautiful to walk here along meadow polders and colorful flower fields, you would almost forget how the water was fought here. After a cup of coffee at the cozy Princen Keet you walk back to your starting point.
