With a bicycle on board, you enjoy freedom on two wheels\u2014wherever your journey takes you. \ud83d\udeb2\u2693<\/h3>\n

Planning a boating holiday and want to explore the surroundings, do some shopping, or pick up fresh bread in the morning? At all our locations, you have the option to take a bicycle on board. Whether you’re departing from Drachten<\/a>\u00a0or Woudsend<\/a>, having a bicycle on board adds flexibility and adventure to your trip.<\/p>\n

Just imagine: you moor in a charming village, step ashore, and cycle straight into town for fresh bread, a museum visit, or some quick shopping. Or perhaps you’d prefer a scenic ride through nature. It’s easy: lift the bike off the boat, hop on, and you\u2019re ready to go.<\/p>\n

Renting a Bicycle<\/h3>\n

At both our locations, you can rent comfortable bicycles with three gears\u2014perfect for peaceful paths and winding roads along the water. In Woudsend, we also offer convenient, compact folding bikes. These can easily be booked through the \u2018<\/em>Optional Extras<\/a>\u2019<\/em> form. Once booked, we will ensure your bike is ready on board before departure.<\/p>\n

Bringing Your Own Bike?<\/h3>\n

Prefer to bring your own bicycle on board? That\u2019s no problem! Please note, however, that electric bikes can be heavier and require more effort to lift on and off the boat.<\/p>\n
