Terrace route with the charm of Bloemendaal
Bloemendaal, Overveen, Aerdenhout
Known for its lush dunes and picturesque coastline, Bloemendaal is the perfect destination for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This charming village and the surrounding nature provide a calming backdrop for a day out, whether you choose to go for a leisurely walk, a bike ride, or simply enjoy the fresh sea air. Bloemendaal is close to Haarlem and easily accessible, but once there, it feels like stepping into another world. The dunes, part of Zuid-Kennemerland National Park, are home to a rich diversity of plants and animals. It is not uncommon to encounter rabbits, foxes or even the majestic Scottish Highlanders on your bike ride through this area. Especially if you get off at the wisentuit viewpoint. For culture lovers, there is the Caprera Open Air Theatre and Walking Park, a place where nature and culture come together. Whether you like music, theatre or dance, the performances in this green setting make for an unforgettable experience. But of course you can also just take a stroll through the surrounding park. Thijsse's Hof is a botanical garden, a living textbook of local flora, laid out by Jac. P. Thijsse. Like Caprera, Thijsse's Hof, too, is a great opportunity to stretch your legs. Bloemendaal's history is also interesting, with historic buildings and sites being silent witnesses of the past. A visit to the Ruïne van Brederode adds a touch of medieval history to your getaway. Bloemendaal is not only beautiful in summer. Each season brings its own charm, from the blooming flowers in spring, the golden dunes in autumn, to the serene calm in winter. For those looking for a day out with a mix of nature, culture and history, without travelling too far, Bloemaal offers a surprisingly versatile experience. It is simple, uncomplicated enjoyment in one of the most beautiful and relaxing corners of the Netherlands.
