The Garden Path Harenkarspel leads you in 32 kilometers along several remarkably beautiful locations within the former municipality Harenkarspel (now municipality of Schagen) in North Holland. You cycle along the companies that cooperate with this 'Tuinderskring Harenkarspel Tour'. These companies can often be visited so you can get to know the real North Holland countryside. In addition, you will encounter features of the rich natural and cultural history that lies in this area. During the bicycle tour you will notice that Harenkarspel is a charming rural municipality in North Holland. Which is characterized by lots of open space around fourteen characteristic large and smaller village communities. This municipality is known for its hospitality as a summer recreation resort for tourists, who vacation at a reasonable distance from the coast. This area is also called "the gardens behind the dunes. The Horticultural Circle Harenkarspel members who took the initiative to set out this bike route, invite you to this route of 38 kilometers to cycle. Besides the beautiful sights that municipality Harenkarspel has to offer you can also visit the companies that together form this beautiful countryside. The Tuinderskring companies are very diverse in product and activity making each company in itself definitely worth a visit.

In the summer you can enjoy strawberries, sunflowers, pumpkins, traditional dairy products, organic products, dahlias and tropical anthuriums. Feel free to take a day for it. In this way, the Gardeners' Circle hopes to raise awareness of the countryside.

This route leads you along beautiful polders and dikes past old villages of Schagen, Sint maarten and Waarland, among others. You start in Schagen. Schagen is already centuries old, written down in 975 as Scagha, which means 'protruding point'. This referred to the mounds, because only from the thirteenth century the sea withdrew and the ground became fertile. Through this area you will cycle over the West Frisian Omringdijk. The bird lover can indulge himself here. Here you will see Marsh Harrier, waders and avocets. If you continue cycling along our beautiful narrow dikes, you will arrive in Waarland. As you can see, the nature of North Holland has many sides. Back on the Market in Schagen you will find a Restaurant 'Bastaard', pleasant. A name with a nod to the past. A name that refers to the first 'lord of Schagen', William of Bavaria. Also called the bastard of North Holland. We also like to introduce the city garden 'De Oude Boom'. Also a name with a past. At the time of Igesz, this space already bore this name. And not without reason. The large tree in the garden the oldest monumental tree in Schagen
