Along the coast and Zeeland-Flemish mills

This route takes you along the Zeeuws-Vlaanderen west coast. Inland you will pass some historical sights, such as old mills and churches.

Newerkerk Creek
You start your bike ride at a beautiful spot: at the Molenkreek. Here you will find Hulsters Molen, a corn mill from 1884 that replaced a predecessor that had been blown down. Further on you will pass through the nature reserve around the Nieuwerkerkse Kreek. This creek was created when pro-State troops breached the dikes to stop the Spanish. The plan succeeded, although several villages disappeared completely in the waves. Including Nieuwerkerke, the creek's namesake.

Breskens
In Nieuwvliet you will pass two corn mills. First you will see the hull of the Luteyn from 1859. Further on there is an unnamed mill from 1850. In the dunes along the North Sea you can enjoy a breath of fresh air, while looking out over the sea. You will pass the Nieuwe Sluis, the oldest existing cast iron lighthouse from 1867. In Breskens you can enjoy the cozy atmosphere. You will also pass Mobiele fietsservice, a mobile workshop for bicycle repairs on location.
