Cycling route Medemblik, Hoorn and Hauwert

Your route starts at Grandcafé de Zeedijk. In West Friesland you can enjoy sweeping views in a landscape dominated by grasslands, waterways and bulb fields. You cycle through villages such as Oostwoud and Twisk, where you see many beautiful thatched farmhouses and centuries-old churches. From junction 70 you drive along the Westfriese Omringdijk, the only monumental dike in the world. Medemblik is one of the historical gems on your route. Get off here to soak up the atmosphere before cycling a few kilometers along the shore of the IJsselmeer. Further on you will pass the De Hoop flour mill from 1889, and you will also pass the De Krijgsman tower mill from 1862. Via the picturesque Blokker you drive to Hoorn, in the countryside you will pass the Kerkepolder seesaw mill from 1866.
