Tour of Nieuw-Vennep, Hoofddorp and Westeinderplassen

Your route starts at Het Tuinhuis in the Historical Garden of Aalsmeer. At Vrouwentroost you can take a trip to the Fort at Kudelstaart before cycling to De Kwakel. From junction 30 you drive along the Ringvaart, which forms the border between North and South Holland up to Bilderdam. It is wonderfully quiet here to travel for miles. Along the way you will discover Upper Mill G (hull/remains) from 1810. Together with Lower Mill H, it formed the Zouthuissluisgang. You cycle to Nieuw-Vennep via Leimuiden and Burgerveen. There is plenty of natural beauty to discover around Hoofddorp, such as Park 21, a relatively new nature reserve. Get off at Museum de Cruquius and then take a tour of the lovely Heemstede. You drive back to your starting point via the Prins Bernhardbos and the Haarlemmermeerse Bos.
