The most beautiful windmill in North Holland
From here you cycle past the flower bulb fields to the De Hoop mill in Wervershoof. This mill was placed here in 1889 as a replacement for an older mill. In 2010, the mill was declared the most beautiful mill in North Holland by the Noordhollands Dagblad.
Mill De Krijgsman
In the town of Oosterblok you can take a look at De Krijgsman. There have already been two other mills on this site, but the current mill was built there in 1896. The earlier mills were destroyed by a storm and lightning. The current mill is still well maintained and is still used for grinding for specialty shops and the food industry.

Radboud Castle
A little further along the route you will pass Radboud Castle on the outskirts of Medemblik. This castle was built at the end of the thirteenth century on behalf of Count Floris V of Holland, who had a series of castles built to keep the West Frisians under control.
