Kagerplassen
From Park Wijde Aa you drive to Rijpwetering and Oude-Ade, two picturesque villages. Further on you pass the Vrouw Venne, a seventeenth-century polder mill. Via a ferry you cross the Kagerplassen to Kaag. From the Huigsloterdijk you have beautiful views over the grasslands and windmills. A wonderful Dutch landscape! You pass the Googermolen here. This polder mill from 1717 is the largest round stone ground sailer in the Netherlands.
Aalsmeer
The beautiful Westeinderplassen were created by peat extraction, but have never been drained. In Aalsmeer you can learn more about the history of floriculture in the Historical Garden. On the Kerkpad you cycle between the Langeraarse Plassen, you have beautiful vistas here. You will also pass two polder mills: the Vrouwgeestmolen from 1797 and the Veendermolen from 1830.
