Amsterdam is one of the world's most cycle-friendly cities, with over 800 km of cycle paths. Cycling is a way of life here and the city's infrastructure intentionally favours bikes over cars. The compact layout means everything is close-by, even the polder countryside with its dykes, tulip fields and windmills is only a short ride away.
The city's impressive network of cycle paths will lead you to all of Amsterdam's sights. A ride alongside the Herengracht and Keizersgracht canals, the most beautiful stretch of the city's canal belt, is a must and nearby you will also find Anne Frank's house. Ride to the Van Gough and Rijks Museums to see famous paintings by the Dutch masters.
A short ride from the bustling city centre delivers you to a more peaceful world of green pastures, waterways, dykes and windmills.
