Veere, Zeeland, The Netherlands
Cycling route: 530204
Provided by: Groots Genieten
On Walcheren you can cycle through the polders and characteristic villages. This route takes you through Domburg, the De Manteling nature reserve and along the Veerse Meer.
Picturesque Domburg
In the old cozy seaside resort of Domburg you will see some beautiful monumental buildings. On the Markt you can see the former town hall from 1567 and the fifteenth-century church. Between Domburg and Oostkapelle you drive through De Manteling, a wonderfully quiet nature reserve. Hardly anywhere else in Europe do deciduous trees grow so close to the coast as here. But at a price: many trees are no higher than one meter. They have been cut short by the biting west wind and the blowing salt.
Zeeland villages
You can get a breath of fresh air in the polders. You pass through characteristic villages, such as Vrouwenpolder where the Pilgrim Church from 1622 is located. Just before Gapinge you pass the Graanhalm, a corn mill from 1864. The hamlet of Poppendamme has existed for about eight centuries and is therefore older than many villages on Walcheren. You will find Poppendamme Imkerij here.
