The Krimpenerwaard between Rotterdam and Gouda might be the Netherlands’ best kept secret. An unprecedented charm and uniqueness make this area an oasis of tranquillity and a space to slow down and relax. Discover how versatile the Krimpenerwaard region can be! Come and enjoy the beautiful Dutch peat meadows, nature in the pastures, various recreational areas and, last but not least, attractive villages and historic towns. Cycling, walking and sailing possibilities are almost infinite. One way to explore this lovely area is the KoeKaasRoute that we have set out for you. This route lets you experience the rich agricultural past within this region by highlighting the best that the region has to offer: cycling past old farmhouses and along ancient roads between Rotterdam and Capelle aan den IJssel via the meadows and farms in the Krimpenerwaard to the beautiful cheese capital Gouda and back again.
