Tour of Lisse and Hillegom

From EuroParcs Noordwijkse Duinen you can take a nice bike ride through the Bulb Region. First you drive past the Oosterduinse Meer recreation area. Between junctions 48 and 40 you look out over the Lageveense Polder with its moist, flowery grasslands. In Lisse you pass some beautiful monumental buildings. The partly white-plastered Reformed Church dates from the fifteenth century, further away is the St. Agatha Church from 1903 with a beautiful adjacent parsonage. You cycle through a trouser area to Hillegom. Here you can take a look at the Hof van Hillegom. This originally fifteenth-century country estate is now used as a town hall. The Maartenskerk originally dates from the thirteenth century, but was largely rebuilt in 1929. The last part of the route takes you along the Noorder Leidsevaart and a bit through the dunes.
