TTT 2017 06 Rondje Noord Holland vanuit Alkmaar
This route was brought to you by:

Route Summary
Ever since the early 90s of the last century, ANWB / Promoter has been setting out the so-called TankTasTocht (TTT). You understand that the name still comes from the GPS-free era, when motorcyclists still searched their way on inland roads with a roadbook in the tank bag or router roll.

This TTT are touring through the Netherlands with the occasional trip to Belgium, Germany or even Luxembourg, which are driven 6 to 7 times a year. The 1st around March and the last around October. These TTTs have a starting point, a pause location and an end point. It is nice to discover what you have not seen in your own country and which nice roads you did not know before.

This TTT is from 2017, so the route may differ slightly from the original.

I have checked all route points and, where necessary, placed them neatly on the road. Also, if necessary, I have further set the starting point and end point of the route a little further apart to prevent navigation to the end point directly and added the POI files of the start and end point, as well as possible pause location (s).

Finally, I made the route the same for TomTom, Garmin and MRA Navigation users.

Thanks to ANWB / Promoter.

RouteXpert Review
From the Randstad you can be there in no time. After the Coentunnel another piece of highway and you drive through the meadow that is also called Noord-Holland. Exaggerated of course, but explain to a New Delhi citizen that it is suddenly becoming a lot quieter at 5 kilometers from the center of Amsterdam.

The TankTasTocht starts in Alkmaar, which incidentally has a very nice center with many old buildings from the 16th and 17th centuries. We leave the city of cheese in a southerly direction and head for Egmond aan Zee. Then along the North Sea coast to Bergen, Petten and Grote Keeten. And then you automatically end up in Den Helder. On Willemsoord you will find Restaurant Leuk and the old Rijkswerf, the former shipyard of the Marine. The historic buildings have been beautifully restored. After the stop you will drive via the Westfriesedijk, among other things - you just have to! - and a whole slew of other dyke roads via Oudesluis and Schagen back to Alkmaar.

Because I have not (yet) driven this route myself, this route gets 3 stars.

Start and end point: McDonalds Alkmaar, Robijnstraat 1.
