Itinerário
Durante este passeio a pé, não nos esquecemos de visitar alguns antigos moinhos de vento de fora, que serviam para bombear água para recuperar terras. Alguns deles são o moinho de vento Broekdijk e o moinho de vento Boterhuis. O trabalho dos moinhos de vento garantiu que a Holanda não fosse inundada pela água do mar. Esta velha técnica pode ser aprendida de forma muito simples, uma vez que você veja como funciona um moinho de vento. Também passamos por um campo de golfe onde a beleza natural é abundante.
Esta é também uma das atrações que encontramos durante nosso passeio. O moinho de vento da cidade de Leiden, localizado na periferia da cidade, também foi usado para bombear água e recuperar terras. Também foi usado em outra fase para fazer grãos. Visitamos este moinho de vento também de fora e gastamos cerca de 10 a 15 minutos.
No início deste passeio a pé, caminhamos em direção ao rio Zijl por um bairro tranquilo. Durante esta parte, você verá a arquitetura de casas e apartamentos típicos holandeses. O rio Zijl é um rio de tamanho médio que flui pelo sul e oeste da Holanda através de Polders. Tem uma paisagem pitoresca onde as pessoas podem desfrutar durante todo o ano. Caminhamos ao longo deste rio em direção aos polders e aos moinhos de vento onde iremos tirar algumas fotos.
O passeio a pé terminará com uma visita à fazenda infantil no distrito dos lagos. Aqui você vê mais animais de fazenda que não verá em seu país de origem. O guia finalmente o levará ao ponto de partida, onde você pegará o ônibus ou transporte próprio para retornar. Observe que o passeio a pé no Merenwijk em Leiden é um dos únicos passeios a pé na Holanda, que apenas a Holidays in Holland oferece.
O moinho de Broekdijk também é um pitoresco moinho de vento localizado no distrito de Merenwijk, em Leiden. É também um moinho de vento que visitaremos de fora e você também terá uma explicação de como funcionava nos séculos anteriores. O moinho de vento Broekdijk está localizado ao lado de um belo campo de golfe e também ao lado do polder Broek. Também veremos essas duas atrações.

Highly recommend this tour for nature and animal lovers. PJ is local to the area and provided some great background on the polders. He even brought a light breakfast to enjoy on our walk. Broekdijkmolen and the children's farm (which is surprisingly large, basically a zoo) were highlights.
Great walk in the park with a knowledgeable guide. Enjoyable easy pace well worth the time an effort. It was money and time well spent.
Thanks David for your review! I was very happy to guide you in the Merenwijk in Leiden.
We enjoyed this walking tour of a calm lakeland area near Leiden which we would otherwise not have seen. PJ's communication before hand was very good, giving us clear instructions of how to get to the meeting point. Don't let the fact you have to travel to the start point put you off. It was an easy bus ride away and you just need to tap your credit/debit card at the start and end of the journey to pay for it. PJ explained very well to us how the windmills had worked in reclaiming the polder land. We were also able to gain a bit of an insight into the Dutch way of life. PJ also gave us some light refreshments. The walk was, of course, very flat and would be suitable for all ages. We really enjoyed the tour.
Thank you very much for your review Lynn and the explanation on the accessibility. Merenwijk is undoubtedly best neighbourhood in Leiden full of greenery and water. Happy to help you next time when you are in Europe again! regards-PJ

Thanks Atula. Wad happy to guide you and your wife when you'll were in the Netherlands. Merenwijk is beautiful. See you next time- Punartha
Pj is an affable and informative guide who knows the land and its history quite well. The land we walked was quite scenic, and I came away with a full understanding of how the polders came about and their importance today. The break for a cup of tea as well timed also. Recommend!
Thanks very much for your review Mike! I appreciate it -. Was glad to help you out to show the beautiful windmills of the Merenwijk.
We had a very pleasant walk in the good company of our guide PJ. We walked along a river, saw a mill and a farm. We had explanations about the Netherlands and our environment (the polders and others). In conclusion, a soothing and instructive walk.
Thanks for your Review Leatitia and Family! I was happy to help you enjoy the Polder and Windmill tour. See you next time!-PJ
Definitely recommendable. The tour took 1 hour and we walked alongside the polders and windmill. It was a beautiful landscape and the guide was very knowledgeable.
Thanks Liona for your review. Was happy to guide you, your husband and mother in law in the Merenwijk. Cheers
Very nice walk outside if the city proper. With Punartha as my guide, it was great to get a sense of the local landscape and neighborhoods. Lovely river and windmill views completed the scene. Thanks Punartha!
Thanks Katie for your review! I was happy to help you enjoy Leiden and the beautiful surroundings! See you next time here in amazing Netherlands.
It was an amazing walk in the evening with the amazing guide Punartha who was very friendly and gave us lot of explanations. This serene pathway invites visitors to embark on a journey of tranquility, where the soothing sounds of lapping water and the gentle rustling of leaves create a symphony of serenity. Once again thanks to Punartha who took on beautiful evening walk where is has so much history. Walk by the lake
Thanks for your review Anujon! We were happy to assist you and your colleague during the Dutch Windmill and polder walking tour. I know you enjoyed and moreover, recommend our tour to the future travelers, Take care-Punartha
Just had the most incredible experience on the Dutch Windmills & Polder Walking Tour in the Netherlands. Trust me, it's an absolute must-do! The tour takes you through picture-perfect landscapes adorned with majestic windmills. Punartha was fantastic, sharing fascinating stories about the polders and their historical significance. It was like stepping into a storybook! Walking through the serene countryside was pure bliss, a refreshing escape from the city buzz. If you want an authentic Dutch adventure, this tour is where it's at. Don't miss out!
Thanks Shahen for your honest review. We were happy to help you during this tour. See you next time.
