During the Middle Ages in North Holland, storm surges caused a lot of peat to disappear into the waves. Lakes were created, the land crumbled and Westflinge, today's West Friesland, was surrounded by water.

May 18, 2025,Fietspad over de dijk - rondtocht vanuit Hoorn

Beautiful tour from beautiful Hoorn.
First a stretch along the Markermeer, nice to watch boats ⛵️
In Enkhuizen enough nice places for a break, we got off there for our lunch, to then continue cycling full of energy, now along the IJsselmeer, also very beautiful with the many sheep and lambs along the dike 😍
Then along all kinds of …

March 7, 2024,WF Omringdijk oost (20 080 Ko)

Today we took the dike again. Cold start, the ice was still on the flat roof behind the house. But in the dim sun it will quickly melt away.
In Andijk I was surprised about the 'policy' of applying road markings. On the new asphalt, first in the middle, then mill it, then divide the road into three equal lanes, …

April 21, 2022,westfriese Omringdijk, de oostkant vanuit Midwoud

After I drove the Westfriese Omringdijk (west side) from Midwoud last week, today I finished the remainder. To Medemblik, past the Radboud castle (I am surprised that there is no highlight of this yet), past the steam engine museum. Along Wervershoof and against a stiff breeze to Andijk and Oosterdijk. Lighthouse de Ven still under construction. In the meantime the …

December 3, 2025,Driehoek HEM ( Hoorn Enkhuizen Medemblik )

Along a deserted dike. Almost no one, especially on the Zuiderdijk. The first part of the ride was very gray. After Enkhuizen, the sun broke through, and we continued under a clear blue sky.

🌡️6 °☀️
12 /u💨💨(2Bft) from SW 238°
First a walk with the dog in the mist.
Soon the mist was gone and a nice sunny walk on the dike could begin. Over the water the wind was still fresh, but yes, not so strange because it was still a few degrees below zero early this morning.

May 28, 2024,🇳🇱 Holland 06 - Hoorn & Co.

Coastal cycle path along Markermeer and IJsselmeer

Hoorn
The port town of Hoorn, located on the Markermeer in the West Friesland region, was granted its city rights as early as 1357. Trade grew and in the 17th century the Dutch East India Company settled here, which increased the city's wealth. Spices of all kinds were traded here in the port. …

August 25, 2025,Rondje over de dijk

Today I walked along the dike. There are quite a few protest signs on the Zuiderdijk. They're against – yet another – large and hideous solar park that will undoubtedly generate a lot of revenue, but will cause even more damage to the landscape.
I still don't understand why a border of evergreen shrubs isn't required around this park when …
