Description
The Hoekse Waard is already beautiful with all those dikes and polders, but if you also take in the Haringvliet you will have a wonderful day out. Get off in Oud-Beijerland to enjoy the beautiful historical buildings!
National Landscape
From your starting point just above Numansdorp you head for the Haringvliet, where you can immediately visit the National Landscape Centre. The Hoeksche Waard is one of the national landscapes of the Netherlands. It was given this special status because of the openness of the area, the polders and the many creeks and dikes. If you continue cycling along the Haringvliet, you will see the nature island Tiengemeten on the horizon.
Winding dikes
The village of Zuid-Beijerland looms up, just like Nieuw-Beijerland and Oud-Beijerland named after Sabina of Bavaria. She was the wife of Lamoraal of Egmont, who founded Oud-Beijerland in the 16th century. You see numerous monumental buildings there.
