Another great day! Today you will (depending on the season you are travelling) cycle through multicolored bulb fields (daffodils, hyacinths and tulips). You will also cycle through coastal towns such as Katwijk and Wassenaar which provide plenty of large, lively beaches to small, cozy family beaches.

67 km

Rivers, polders and lakes describe your last cycling day the best (bird lovers bring your binoculars!). You will cycle through the city of Utrecht. The city owes its historical but also very lively character for the most part because of the beautiful “Venice” like canals, low terraces directly on the water with cafes and restaurants, almost nowhere else to be found in the world unless in Venice.
