Elevation

Difficulty

It’s a bit of a mouthful, but “Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen” simply refers to the dunes that supply Amsterdam with its drinking water. This route blends the stunning dune landscape with the classic polder views that surround the city.

It kicks off through the Kennemerland Dunes, a truly beautiful area. There’s a short stretch of gravel in there, but it’s no problem on any road bike. From there, you’ll follow a smooth cycle path to Zandvoort, where the Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen begin. Ride the dune path all the way to Noordwijkerhout, then loop back to Amsterdam along the Ringvaart.

Check the wind direction before you roll out and tweak your route if needed.
