Wormer, Spijkerboor, Neck
In the vicinity of Wormer lies a beautiful nature reserve: the Wormer and Jisperveld. A low-lying area that, thanks to the many water mills, would be an enormous lake. The area is surrounded by dikes from which you have a magnificent view. You cycle along charming villages in a truly Dutch landscape. It is also the area of the Defense Line of Amsterdam, so you will be surprised by robust forts. But don't forget to enjoy the many birds.

Enjoy cycling through authentic Dutch landscapes! You will pass by the Zaanse Schans, so on this cycling route, you will undoubtedly encounter windmills. But the Hembrug Museum and the Czaar Peterhuisje are also excellent starting points. However, the highlight is the mills that played a crucial role in winning the battle against water. You will also partially pass through an industrial area, so you should appreciate a bit of industry on this cycling route!
