About This Route

A masterpiece of engineering and nature. This route takes you over the famous 32km long Afsluitdijk, a dam that separated the Zuiderzee from the North Sea. You'll drive with water on both sides for miles. Then, explore the UNESCO Wadden Sea coast with its unique mudflats, quiet sheep-dappled dikes, and historic harbor towns like Enkhuizen. Extremely flat and iconic for any Dutch road trip.
