Flower fields around Keukenhof
Bekijk route
During this bike tour you will discover everything where the Dune- and Bulb area is well-known for. It already starts when you pass the estate Keukenhof, where you can find different statues and the castle with the same name. Continue your way across the railway and cycle past the village Halfweg to the Oosterduinse lake. On your way there you will see different colourful flower fields. You can make great photographs from the viewing point Tespelduyn. Keep in mind that during this part of the route golf carts may pass you on the bike path.
The Oosterduinse lake is called the pearl of Noordwijkerhout and that is not without reason.
