AREA


In the beautiful region around the authentic Noord Holland villages of Uitgeest and Akersloot and the "Uitgeester" and "Alkmaarder" lake there are many possibilities to undertake nice and varied activities. At a surface of only some square kilometres visitors can, either alone or with a group, experience a marvellous day which will be talked over for a long time afterwards.
 
Below we mention a few recreational facilities for a delightful day out:
- beach
- city-trips
- bike rides
- sailing and canoeing
 
Bike- and walkingroutes
 
Uitgeest and Akersloot, at the nice banks of the "Alkmaarder" and "Uitgeester" lake, are a superb area for water sportsmen and nature lovers. The Recreational Council concerned has set out a charming bike- and walkingroute along the banks of the lake, the so-called "ferry-route". During this trip you make frequent use of a ferry in order to continue your voyage of discovery at the other side of the water. Around the lake are various beautiful and valuable nature-reserves.
 
Shops and restaurants within a 120 metres' radius. Uitgeest lies along the A9 road. Haarlem, Alkmaar and Amsterdam are at a 20 minutes'  distance by car or train.
 
If you would like to explore the surroundings of the "Alkmaarder" lake  you could visit the town of Alkmaar which you'll find at about a 10 kilometres' distance. Or you could pay a visit to the "Zaanse Schans"  which is very worth visiting. Here you'll find a gathering of mills and characteristic old houses as well as the oldest Dutch grocery-shop and a wooden shoe factory and shop.
 
Feel rich in the Heart of North Holland.
Sea and dunes, polders and woods, tranquility and pleasant busyness, towny and rural, open and intimate.
Walking in the dunes, enjoying the beach, canoeing, sailing, cycling, eating nice food and having a comfortable bed. Believe it or not, it is all possible in the Heart of North Holland.
