Description
The Half Cities Tour (89 km)
Don't skate, but cycle past six historic Frisian towns and villages. You cycle past lakes, cliffs, meadows, over shell paths and historic dikes. The lakes, canals, canals and ditches mark the Frisian landscape. This cycling tour offers you a variety of views. The Half Cities Tour takes you along beautiful (tourist) cycle paths in Southwest Friesland, including the most beautiful cycle path in our country: the Brekenpaad near Oudega (swf). You will also come across a bicycle ferry on your route near Gaastmeer. That's even more fun. You will find much more information about this beautiful tour on www.helftstedentocht.nl and on the website www.fryslansudwest.nl/helftstedentocht.html. For example: what is there to experience along the route? Where can you park a car? What are the opening hours of the ferry? etc..
The team at VVV Waterland van Friesland wishes you a pleasant bike ride!
Route tips and tricks:
The route is 89 kilometers in contrast to the route.nl calculation of 98 km. This is because at Workum you have two options: the official route to junction 96 takes you past a cheese farm. And also the picturesque route to Hindeloopen (see also below at junction 20).
The tour is designed counterclockwise. You can basically start the bike tour anywhere!
On the Snekerstraat in Bolsward you turn from the Tinq gas station into the Secretaris Haitsmalaan.
At Workum after junction 20, go diagonally towards the mill, through the swing gate, follow the asphalt road along the dike. Close the gates because of possible sheep. At the end, go through the gate towards Hindeloopen.
At junction 39 (near IJlst) turn right. Follow the road for 1.5 km (along the track) to the roundabout (Station). Along the Stadslaan. Go over the bridge, follow 'through traffic' and turn left. After the next fixed bridge at the supermarket, turn left towards the mill. Follow Sneekerpad.
Tip: a nice Bed & Breakfast to undertake the Helfststedentocht can be found in Easterein: De Elfstedenstate
