Through the Dollard from the port city of Delfzijl

Delfzijl was once a fortified city. In the bustling harbour you can still see this at the monumental Grote Waterpoort. The route also takes you through villages such as Siddeburen, Borgsweer and Hellum. The Groningen landscape is ideal for a day of cycling. You have beautiful views over the meadows, along the Schildmeer and along the many waterways. Here and there are patches of young forests, such as at Wagenborgen where you enter the Oldambt. This vast agricultural area turns yellow in the spring from the rapeseed.
