You actually cycle around Texel. You cycle through the beautiful dune areas of Texel. Texel is not only rich in nature but also in various kinds of animals. Many different bird species live on Texel, and the island has more sheep than people. Along the route, you also pass Oudeschild and De Koog. Oudeschild is a 17th-century fishing village with a beautiful harbor. De Koog is the seaside resort of Texel. So you can enjoy the beach and of course have a bite to eat in the center.
Author’s recommendation
Definitely recommended to visit the lighthouse. From the top of the lighthouse, you have a beautiful view over Texel and the sea.
