Enjoy peace and quiet in the Utrecht polder

Between Wilnis and Woerden you will find a strikingly natural and peaceful landscape that is rich in cultural history. A wonderful area to indulge your cycling passion.

Kockengense Mill
In this relatively sparsely populated region you drive over dikes through an open peat meadow area with countless ditches and canals. The associated mills are not missing. You will see, among other things, the Kockengense Mill from 1675. Until the 1960s he drained the Kockengense polder, whose characteristic narrow plots date from the thirteenth century. A little later you will pass the Veenmolen, a flour mill from 1823.

Woerdense Leave
The Woerdense Verlaat neighborhood was built near the lock in the Grecht, which was built in 1448. Zegveld was only opened up through the construction of roads in the 1960s. Cycling through the village you will still experience the authentic atmosphere of the past.

Castle the hair
Enough time for an excursion? Then visit Kasteel de Haar, the largest castle in the Netherlands. The castle originally dates from the fourteenth century, the current castle was rebuilt in 1892 in neo-Gothic style.
