Cycling more than 56 kilometers along gullies, canals, fens and other waterways: cycling through the Vecht region north of Woerden is never boring. You cycle through the characteristic polder landscape.

Starting point: Kamerik
This cycle route starts at the most striking building in Kamerik and that is the church. It was built around 1855.

The Vechtstreek
Cycling through the Vecht region is wonderful. The Vecht region is known for the presence of the many estates, castles and country houses, but also for the beautiful nature. A short distance on either side of the river stretches out natural areas that were created by the peat bogs. The horizon is far away in this landscape that stretches out before you. What a feeling of freedom!

Vinkeveense Plassen
During the route you cycle through Wilnis to Mijdrecht in the direction of Vinkeveen. Vinkeveen is mainly known for the Vinkeveense Plassen. Here you can dive, but also sail and sail. But it is also a beautiful area for cycling and walking. This wetland peat meadow area has a traditional Dutch character with characteristic, elongated plots. The Vinkeveense Plassen originated from the Golden Age through the extraction of peat. The current elongated islands are legakkers, which were formerly used as drying fields for the wet peat.
