Welcome to Zandvoort

Cycling through the dunes of National Park Zuid-Kennemerland. An undulating landscape with lakes, valleys, forest and beach and sea. You will pass the estates Koningshof and Elswout. And in between you can take a refreshing dip in 't Wed or have a drink at Duincafé De Kennemerduinen.

During the Sloppies walk we take you into the history of Zandvoort. The walk goes past various locations that take you back to the time when Zandvoort was still a fishing village.

Zandvoort is originally a fishing village. Where the men got the fish from the sea, the women (mostly) walked to Haarlem with a heavy basket full of fish. Here they traded them in the fish halls. With the Stinkende Emmer route you follow in the footsteps of these fishmongers.

During this route you will cycle a nice round around Haarlem and ride through the various smaller villages that embrace Haarlem. They all have their own charm but let Haarlem shine in their midst. Cycle through the polder and cross the water on the most beautiful bridges.

From Zandvoort to IJmuiden is a beautiful route between the two seaside resorts. You walk over the Zandvoort beach via Bloemendaal aan zee to the pier of IJmuiden and back through the Zuid-Kennemerland National Park.

The Waterleidingduinen is home to the largest population of fallow deer in the Netherlands. With this route you walk off the paths through the forests in search of these beautiful animals. Not that you have to look far: in the area you are guaranteed deer. So enjoy the deer and the surroundings during the walk.

Around Circuit Zandvoort lies the mountain bike course of Zandvoort. from the entrance at the old slip terrain of Slotemakers you ride about 10 kilometers over the challenging course. Steep descents and climbs and the longest Laarwall in the Netherlands.

This route takes you along the four cores of Zandvoort; beach, circuit, nature and the village. Along the beach you drive to Bloemendaal, here you drive into the dunes towards Parnassia. Drink a nice cup of coffee here and then continue your route back to Zandvoort along the circuit.
