Description
In the northwest of Friesland you can enjoy a nice and quiet cycling trip. You will find plenty of peace, space and small old villages with beautiful churches.
Kerktoren From the village of Tzummarum you drive through the polders to Firdgum. On the horizon you can already see the striking thirteenth-century church tower. The church was demolished in 1794 because it was dilapidated. Then you cycle to the Zeedijk. It is wonderful to cycle here in the lee of the dike, while looking out over the meadows and many ditches. A little before junction 60 you can climb the dike to look out over the Wadden Sea.
Octagonal church Oude Bildtzijl enjoys a protected village view, time seems to have stood still here. You pass Hoeve Noordveld, a special place to stay. On the Oude Bildtdijk you can see some monumental farms. In Sint-Annaparochie you will pass the octagonal Van Harenskerk from 1683. In Berlikum there is an octagonal domed church dating from 1779. Just outside Menaldum you will pass the Kievit, a thatched polder mill from 1802.
