Quite simple brick building in the center of Wijk.

The memorial commemorates the brave men who risked their lives to help those in distress at sea

Nice place for a coffee break.

The entire tour follows well-maintained paths through diverse landscapes, meadows, dunes, and forests. If you're not riding in midsummer, it's a good idea to pack a jacket, as the wind blows freshly, and it's quite cold in the forest. In the off-season, the route is sparsely used by other cyclists and road cyclists. You'll often be alone in the great outdoors. The paths are mostly paved and two-lane, with no car traffic. There are also many hiking and horseback riding trails. The photos don't even begin to convey how beautiful this tour is.

The village church was built in the time and style of the Brick Gothic and its origins date back to 1460.

Fort aan den Ham is a fort of the Defence Line of Amsterdam. It is located on the railway line from Uitgeest to Krommenie. The earthen ramparts, the first part of this defence work, date from 1896, the fort itself was completed in 1903. Originally, this fort was not included in the plans of 1880, but this became necessary due to the newly formed access that arose after the construction of the Amsterdam – Alkmaar railway line. Because this railway line between Uitgeest and Krommenie was on a slope, exactly between the larger forts Veldhuis and Krommeniedijk, a fort was built next to this railway line to control this railway embankment. The fort closed off these entrances in wartime. In 1896, earthen ramparts were constructed on the fort site and in 1902-1903 the bomb-proof buildings followed.[1] In 1908, a concrete secondary battery was built south of the fort.[1] Heavy guns were placed here to fire at the approaching enemy from a greater distance. The adjacent Rijksweg, the current N203, was completed in 1934 and runs parallel to the railway line.

This bunker was specially built in 1940 to protect the national art collection from ‘collateral damage’ in the event of a German invasion. The Night Watch was stored in a rolled-up state in this cellar with walls and a roof of 1.5 metres of reinforced concrete. That is hard to imagine, isn’t it?

Remains slippery longer after frost than the rest of the roads. New asphalt is then an ice rink. Resulting in a fall as I unfortunately experienced myself today
