Avifauna - Uithoorn

You depart from Avifauna and cycle in the direction of Uithoorn. The route goes past real South Holland villages such as De Hoef, Bilderdam, Zevenhoven and De Kwakel. They are real peat polders and reclaimed land with the best clay. There is also plenty of water, you will cycle along the Langeraarssche Plassen, the Braassemmermeer, the Drecht, Amstel and Kromme Mijdrecht. You may spot various meadow birds, such as the black-tailed godwit, lapwing or curlew. Along the Kromme Mijdrecht in De Hoef, the fun skating museum of Toon van Kempen is worth a visit. Between the Kwakel and Bilderdam, the route follows the original towpath, very beautiful but less suitable for fast cyclists. Here, South Holland is at its best, but the cycle path at its narrowest.
