Cycle route through the Haarlem neighborhood communities
The route takes you along the most beautiful spots around Haarlem. The route is mostly about cycle paths, but there are also forest paths and sand paths. You come through different landscapes, parks and forests. You cycle a section along the ringvaart, past ponds and the lake Mooie Nel at Spaarndam. Spaarndam is a picturesque village just like Spaarnwoude with its church with a blunt tower. (Often there are exhibits that are free to visit)

Unfortunately, the green signs with yellow arrows are no longer everywhere. We therefore recommend that you follow the numbers of the cycle route network: We start at route junction 79 on the Raadhuisplein in Zandvoort. We go to the following nodes: 77-83-82-72-76-67-87-56-52-53-88-50-87-33-32-31-10-91-15-16-35-38 -39-34-07-99-66-18-79.
Door zijn lengte is het aanbevolen de route in tweeën te knippen. Via het routeknooppunten netwerk kunt u eenvoudig naar en van Zandvoort terugkeren.
Bij Heemstede komt u een ooievaarsnest tegen en bij de Liede fiets u door een lepelaarskolonie.
Around Haarlem
The cycling route ‘Rondje Haarlem’ was an initiative of the Haarlems Dagblad and the Noord-Hollands Landschap. The route does every beautiful spot of the surroundings of Haarlem in about 50 kilometers (from Zandvoort 9 kilometers extra bikes). The variety between tarmac, forest and sand paths makes this triptych very varied.
In the breeding season a cycle path has been closed, to give the birds rest. You can then take an alternative sand path.
