ホーンの湖・トップ20

It's often windy on the dike, but if you make sure you're facing the right direction, it's a very pleasant route. Even in summer, when flies and mosquitoes are plentiful, always try to ride with the wind at your back.

IJsselmeer dike between Edam and Warder. From Wikipedia

The Moordenaarsbraak is the remains of one of the many dike breaches in North Holland caused by flooding of the Zuiderzee. Between Edam and Hoorn, the IJsselmeer dike owes its winding shape to the dike breaches, which the dike was then built around. The Moordenaarsbraak probably originated in the period between 1775 and 1849.[1] The Moordenaarsbraak is a more or less circular water area, which is bordered by a reed collar. The Moordenaarsbraak has been designated as a provincial monument because it is seen as a "defining element in the North Holland Polder landscape".[2] The name Moordenaarsbraak refers to the violence of the sea, which caused people in the area to be murdered.[3] The nature reserve is managed by Staatsbosbeheer. Just south of the Moordenaarsbraak are the Groote Braak and the Kleine Braak and just north of the Zandbraak and the Hogendijkerbraak, all located within a distance of approximately 5 kilometers along the IJs

. Harbor Wijdenes East of Wijdenes on the Markermeer The harbor is located on the Zuiderdijk. Just a resting point during a day of sailing, but also a wonderful place to sit by the water during a walk or a bike ride. The harbor of Wijdenes is an excellent place to enjoy the Markermeer, with a wide view over the water. You can sunbathe, fish and moor here. You can stay for a maximum of three nights in the harbor for a fee

Great view of the IJsselmeer. Tour is worth it 😀

A very nice bike path in the nature reserve 👍
