While canoeing, various parts of the Amsterdam Defence Line are still visible here.
The meadows surrounding Fort K'IJK are rich in meadow birds. The area around this fort is partially flooded in early spring.

Noord-Hollandpad - Etappe 12 Krommenie - Halfweg
This long stage—25 km is no small feat—is one of extremes. Here, you encounter not only grassy dikes, shell paths, and narrow dike roads, but you also walk through the prehistoric Oer-IJ, past remnants of the Amsterdam Defence Line and the North Sea Canal. And if that isn't enough, this stage takes you right into the heart of the Randstad, with planes flying to and from Schiphol overhead.
