From Rockanje to Brielle and Oostvoorne

During this cycle route of over 38 kilometers you will discover the island of Voorne-Putten. The island is known for its picturesque villages, dunes and forests. Get on your bike, let the wind blow through your hair and enjoy!

On the beach
Badhotel Rockanje & Brasserie Lodgers is the starting point of this cycling route. From here you can walk or cycle to the beach, a beautiful location for a hotel. The beach is located in a 'bay' against an undeveloped coast. The cycle route takes you past Rockanje and then you cycle to Brielle.

Fortified city of Brielle
Visit the fortified city of Brielle and discover where all those sayings and songs come from.'On April 1, Alva lost his glasses\\\'. On April 1, 1572, the Water Beggars appeared in front of Den Briel and demanded the surrender of the city. Duke Alva sent an army to retake the city, but then the floodgates were opened to drive out the Spanish. And then Alva lost Den Briel, or: his glasses. Little has changed in Brielle since then and you can still find the atmosphere of that time everywhere. Nice restaurants and shops are hidden behind the many historic facades.

Museum in den Halven Maen
About halfway you cycle past Museum in den Halven Maen. In this museum you will find all kinds of nostalgic utensils and, for example, an old grocery shop has been recreated. Imagine yourself in earlier times here and don't forget to stock up on some tasty sweets in the nostalgic sweet shop. You then cycle through Oostvoorne towards the west of the island, where you can cycle through the dunes and forests. This is where you can really relax.
