Description

Your cycling route starts at Bike Totaal Kruijswijk Tweewielers. Straight through Castricum you drive to Uitgeest. At the Uitgeestermeer you will pass the Tweede Broekermolen, a windmill built in 1631, on the Lagendijk. It is one of five windmills that drained the Uitgeest and Heemskerkerbroekpolder. You will also cycle past three forts from the Defense Line of Amsterdam, such as the Fort on Sint-Aagtendijk. Fort bij Krommeniedijk can be visited, as can Fort aan den Ham, which houses a museum. The landscape at the North Sea Canal is suddenly very different. For the construction of the canal, an entire dune area was excavated by hand. In IJmuiden you cross the water with a ferry, who knows what large ships you will see up close!
