This route along centuries-old church paths through the Eilandspolder starts in De Rijp. In the Golden Age, this was a prosperous village thanks to herring fishing, whaling, trade, and shipbuilding.
Texel has mapped out a 6-kilometer walking route that allows you to enjoy the landscape to the fullest. Dogs are welcome on this route, provided they are kept on a leash.
Bring plenty of food and drink, as there are few facilities. During the breeding season (spring), parts of the beach may be cordoned off.
