Description
Get on your bike and discover the pearl of the Green Heart: the Nieuwkoopse Plassen. From the saddle you see a typical Dutch landscape of grasslands, reed beds and lowland peat bogs. Many houses are located here on an island that can only be reached via a small bridge. Along the way you will pass various sights, such as the Arkduif. This corn mill is located in Bodegraven and originally dates from 1697. Further on you follow the road that runs along the meandering Meije. Along this river you will see pollard willows, old farms and the almost sixty-metre high white water tower from 1932. It is wonderfully quiet cycling here. The hamlet of Woerdense Verlaat was built at the lock in the Grecht that was already constructed in 1448.
