Tour of Schagen and Petten

Your route starts at Hotel't Zwaantje. Via Oudesluis you cycle to Kolhorn, here you will find the nice museum De Turfschuur. Also take a look at the Laurenskerk. Then you cycle to Schagen. Regional Museum 1940-1945 is located in one of the castle towers of Schagen Castle. The towers date from the Middle Ages! Museum Battle of the Somme 1914-1918 can be found in the other castle tower: the only museum in the Netherlands about the First World War. The octagonal Hargermolen dates from 1804. The Hargerpolder and the Pettemerpolder are still partly drained by it, on a voluntary basis. On the coast at Petten you can enjoy beautiful views over the sea. Take a moment to watch the waves rolling onto the beach, wonderfully relaxing!
