Tour of Dordrecht from Zuidpolder Landscape Park

  • The Netherlands
  • South Holland
  • Barendrecht
  • 31.97 km (Approximately 01:52 u)
  • Cycling route 138275

This cycling route starts with a cup of coffee (or tea) at Polderzicht Tea & More, in the renovated Zuidpolder Landscape Park. From here you cycle through the Waalbos and along the water to Dordrecht. Three rivers meander around the city and meet just outside the city limits: the Beneder-Merwede, the Noord and the Oude Maas. You will see many ships on your bike: due to its location just before Rotterdam, this water junction is the busiest part of Europe. Dordrecht, also called 'Dordt', is first mentioned in a text from the twelfth century. When you cycle through the city, its rich past will undoubtedly appeal to you. For example, stop at Huis Weizigt from 1794. The high hipped roof and the brick facade with corner pilasters give the building a stately appearance.

The most famous windmill type in the Netherlands. Windmills were used not only to produce flour from cereals, but also to reclaim polder areas. Natural energy. The most famous windmills can be found in Kinderdijk, really set up as a polder model. A must see!
