You can use our kayak or bikes to experience the tranquility of the countryside.

Kinderdijk (Unesco World Heritage!) is only 25 kilometers away. Dive into a world of windmills, water and willpower. The canals, mills and pumping stations of Kinderdijk have kept our feet dry for over 700 years. Board the tour boat, step inside the museum mills and discover the personal stories of the millers.If you go by bike, most of the route leads through quiet villages or quiet cycle paths. It tells you the story of the centuries of Dutch struggle against the water. See https://www.kinderdijk.com/

Gorinchem (10 km) was an important fortress in the Old and New Dutch Waterline. And the largest that is still completely intact. The ramparts run all the way around and give beautiful views over the rivers; unique in the Netherlands! See https://www.mooigorinchem.nl/nl

The centre of Dordrecht (25 km)looks and feels like Amsterdam: canals and ports with majestic houses. https://indordrecht.nl/en/see-do/
Museum van Gijn (http://www.huisvangijn.nl/) is unique:an ancient home at one of the ports looks as if the owner is just away to do some shopping. A visit can be combined with the Dordrechts Museum (http://www.dordrechtsmuseum.nl/) Every room has its own touchscreen to find our more of what can be seen. Nice for children too.
