Cycling through Voornes Duin

On Voorne-Putten you experience the peace and space you expect from an island. This route takes you through the beautiful nature of Voornes Duin, but also through Brielle.

Den Briel
The route starts at Hotel Restaurant't Wapen van Marion. Have a coffee here and then drive along the leafy banks of the Brielse Meer. On the other side you see the Hartel Canal and the port of Rotterdam, an impressive view. From a distance you see Brielle coming closer. The largely seventeenth-century fortress is one of the best preserved defense works in the Netherlands. You will see, among other things, the Flying Deer, a flour mill from 1862.

Voornes Dune
From the beautiful village of Zwartewaal you drive into the polder. What peace and space you will find here! Just past the ribbon village of Tinte you pass Museum in den Halven Maen. Here you take a wonderful leap back in time thanks to old objects such as groceries, tin and tobacco items. Just before Rockanje you cycle through the Meertje de Waal nature reserve. A little later you drive into the woods of Voornes Duin. To enjoy!
