Description

Around Alkmaar you will find on one side a water-rich area full of polders and on the other side a vast dune area along the coast. You start the route at Café Restaurant Genot van Grootschermer, which is located on the water of the Eilandspolder. From the terrace you have a view over the polder. From here you cycle through the nature reserve the Eilandspolder and the surrounding polders to Heiloo. You cycle over dikes along ditches and other waters. Along the way you will come across various mills. From Heiloo you cycle on to Alkmaar, which is of course known for the cheese market, but the monumental buildings and the canals are also beautiful. In Grootschemer you can visit the Museum and Sculpture Garden Nic Jonk, where you will find beautiful statues, paintings and glass artworks.
