Cycle route along the Westeinderplassen

Highlight • Cycleway

Nice fast cycling route for me from Leimuiden to the Amsterdamse Bos. 15 km nice cycling. Be careful of parked cars and fishermen who may do strange things with their fishing rod. But also very beautiful in the morning with the mist above the Westeinderplas and the Ringvaart.

Bike path along the Westeinder Plassen

Highlight • Cycleway

Beautiful road and bike path straight along the lake (Plassen). In summer nice views on the boats and the birds. Very good asphalt, easy rolling. Traffic even on nice summer days not a problem.

Ferry at Rijpwetering

Highlight • Rest Area

Well, that's what I call a ferry. When I took the photo here, the friendly ferryman immediately jumped up to his hut and wanted to translate me. I only had a nice photo in mind and not a boat trip.

Fort near Aalsmeer (Fort Rijsenhout)

Highlight • Historical Site

The Fort at Aalsmeer, also known as Fort Rijsenhout, dates from the years 1890-1895. The tank buildings built 10 years later meant the completion of the fort in 1905. It was part of the Amsterdam defense line. During the mobilization in the First World War, the fort was manned by approximately 280 troops. Since 2009, the CRASH Museum of Airborne Warfare and Resistance '40-'45 has been located in the fort, which is open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
