Description

North of Haarlem you will find a beautiful area full of cozy villages, estates and country estates on the edge of the dunes of the Zuid-Kennemerland National Park. This route takes you between Santpoort-Noord and Santpoort-Zuid. Go out and discover all the beauty that can be found here.

Estates and country estates
The starting point of this route is at Santpoort-Noord train station. From here you will be on the estates on the edge of the dunes in no time. Take a look at the sandstone pumpkins at Park Kennemergaarde and then continue to Landgoed Duin & Kruidberg. Fancy a little break with a cup of coffee or maybe a nice meal? Then settle down in the restaurant or brasserie on the estate. A little further on you walk through the former seigniory of Brederode.

Castle Brederode
There used to be an imposing castle on the forest floor of the lordship, but nowadays you will only find the ruins of Brederode. Over the centuries, the original castle from the 14th century has been destroyed, rebuilt and then largely lost again. Nevertheless, the ruin is still interesting to view. You then walk through Santpoort-Zuid and past the Burgemeester Rijkenspark back to Santpoort-Noord.

Corn mill De Zandhaas
On the edge of Santpoort-Noord you will find a flour mill that dates back to 1779. Deviate a little from the route to see this beautiful attraction that is still in operation. On the ground floor is the mill shop where various products for the home baker are for sale.
