In the Bulb Region you cycle through a palette of colors. You will also find special nature reserves, historic places and of course the Keukenhof.

Keukenhof Castle
The route starts at Lake Como, as the Oosterduinse Meer recreation area is called by the locals. You drive to the Keukenhof where you enjoy the flowers and their story. Keukenhof Castle was built in 1640 as a private residence by order of a commander of the Dutch East India Company. It is now a museum.

Dutch Dune
You drive through the polder to the Park Landgoed Huys in Warmont. The left tower is a remnant of a medieval keep. Further on you pass the Hoop Doet Leven. This mill from 1783 originally stood in Rijnsburg, but has been at its current location since 1999. Finally, you drive a bit through Hollands Duin. In this beautiful nature reserve you will find sheltered forests, open dune plains and deer. What immediately stands out here: the silence!
