RouteXpert Review
The ring canal around the Haarlemmermeer, a very beautiful part of the Netherlands. In 1848, the ring canal was completed and in 1852 it was more dry, see this site https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringvaart_van_de_Haarlemmermeerpolder I drive this route regularly as an evening ride, recovering from the hustle and bustle of the work. In this route I start in Cruquius and follow the ring road towards Lisse / Lisserbroek. At rp 3 you will come to the Leeghwater pumping station and the ferry to the Kaag, here you will find beautiful ships that are built here.
At rp 4 we drive along the A4 along the aqueduct, this aqueduct has doubled not long ago. We drive to Rijsenhout / Aalsmeer and pass the Westeinderplassen at rp 7. At the bridge at Aalsmeer we have to leave the ring canal, at rp 9 are back again and continue our way towards Schiphol. We drive underneath the A9 and the A4 in the direction of Badhoevedorp / Lijnden a little bit past rp 13 you will find pumping station Lijnden, here is now a restaurant.
The last part we drive to Zwanenburg, and then direction Vijfhuizen, here we pass a fort of the Defense Line of Amsterdam. We end again in the Cruquius and for the most beautiful pumping station. With your museum card free to view, it is certainly worth it!
Do not rush this route, take the time for it. There are a number of 30 km / h pieces with camera control, also keep it nice for the residents!
