RouteXpert Review
The 1st of the "Monster Tour" of MTC-Zeilberg. This route goes from Brabant (Zeilberg) to Noord-Holland and via the Afsluitdijk * to Friesland. The first and last part is about the highway. Furthermore, the route goes as close to the IJsselmeer as possible. * The Afsluitdijk is the water defense between Noord-Holland and Friesland, which closes off the IJsselmeer from the Wadden Sea. The dam derives its name from this. The Afsluitdijk is important to protect the Netherlands against flooding.
The Afsluitdijk is part of the Zuiderzee Works. In 1927 the construction was started. In 1932 the last closing hole, the Vlieter, was closed. A year later, the dike was opened to road traffic. On the site where the Afsluitdijk was closed, a monument was erected, the Vlietermonument.
There are locks for shipping and sluices on both sides of the Afsluitdijk. Against North Holland it is the Stevin locks. The Lorentz locks are located on Kornwerderzand, at more than 4 km from Friesland. The entire dike is 32.5 km long, the water retaining part 30 km.
A traffic road runs along the Afsluitdijk, connecting both provinces. This road is part of the Rijksweg 7. The road is not at the highest point of the dike but south of it, so that the Wadden Sea is not visible from the road. There is a bicycle path along the road.
A travel story was also made of this monster tour, see the link "The travel story of this monster tour".
Because I have driven this route myself, this route gets 4 stars.

The 10 most beautiful car and motorcycle routes in the Netherlands
These 10 routes in the Netherlands have been carefully selected, checked and made equal for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation by a MyRoute-app RouteXpert. The 10 most beautiful motorcycle and car routes in the Netherlands are always a snapshot, and a personal opinion of the reviewer. This does not alter the fact that every lover of beautiful roads and interesting sights will enjoy these routes.
The ten routes are spread over 10 provinces, we only skipped Flevoland and South Holland. Interesting routes can also be found in the MyRoute app RouteXpert library, but we still want to stick to the 10 most beautiful and not the 12 most beautiful.
Enjoy the many fortresses and castles that are included in the routes, such as Fort Veldhuis in North Holland. But also take a look at the route southeast of Nijmegen and visit the impressive Canadian War Cemetery and Memorial. The route 'Overijssel in bird's eye view' includes the oldest house in the Netherlands and the route along the IJssel is probably the most beautiful piece of asphalt in the Netherlands.
This way there is something for everyone in this route collection. If you do not agree with these 10 routes, please send us an e-mail, indicate which route(s) should be removed and which route you would like to see instead. Maybe your route will be included in this collection of the 10 most beautiful routes in the Netherlands!
