Tour of Eilandspolder, Graft and De Rijp

At Zuid is the starting point of your cycle route. Further on you cycle along the Eilandspolder, with picturesque villages such as Grootschermer on the edge. The Town Hall of Grootschermer was built in 1639. Over the centuries it has been restored twice. Here in the Dutch polders there are even more beautiful villages with a centuries-old cultural history. This route also takes you through Graft and De Rijp, real gems. In Graft you see the Town Hall, a beautiful building in Renaissance style from 1613. De Rijp was a prosperous town for several centuries thanks to whaling and herring fishing. You can still see some of that prosperity when you walk past the beautiful old buildings. Shortly after each other you also pass the two village churches , Beeldentuin't Westeinde and Galerie & Beeldentuin De Eilandspolder.
