Tips
The Kandelaarbrug is a drawbridge for pedestrians and cyclists, over the Delftse Schie, in the Dutch province of South Holland. The drawbridge is hydraulically driven by a cylinder under the bridge deck. The bridge has, on the west side, the longest ramp in the entire area and there is a 'kink' in this ramp. Approximately 5000 cyclists use the bridge per week and it opens about 120 times during that time. Crosswinds at the Kandelaarbrug make it difficult for skippers to pass this bridge.

Take a long run, because the bridge is very steep!

One of many bridges for cyclists and hikers. As far as bike paths and bicycle lanes in the Netherlands are concerned, Germany can cut a big slice.
