Netherlands
The Netherlands is the world's cycling capital, a country where bicycles outnumber people and cycling is simply the way life is lived. For the touring cyclist, this means infrastructure of unmatched quality, flat terrain that makes every day comfortable and enjoyable, and a landscape of extraordinary beauty – windmills, tulip fields, canals, historic city centres and the wide open skies of the polders. Dutch drivers are trained to look for cyclists and the road culture is deeply respectful of anyone on two wheels. Whether you are exploring Amsterdam, following the coast to the North Sea islands or riding through the bulb fields in spring, cycling in the Netherlands is a pure pleasure from start to finish.Popular Cycling Routes in the Netherlands
The North Sea Cycle Route (EuroVelo 12) follows the Dutch coast through the Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage area. The LF Coastal Route connects the North Sea islands by ferry and cycle path. The Amsterdam to Brussels route passes through the heart of Dutch and Belgian cycling country. The Flower Route through the bulb fields of South Holland is spectacular in April and May.
