Paddle and Pedal station Ditzumerverlaat

Tide-free canoe route from Ditzum on the Ditzum-Bunder Sieltief to Ditzumerverlaat, 6.5 km, approx. 2 hours.

Simple, beautiful canoe route that leads you through the heart of Rheiderland. The canal has no current and is therefore easy to master even for inexperienced canoeists. The destination Ditzum is one of the insider tips and many local establishments invite you to stop by. In Ditzum, a walk through the town and the harbor is worth it.

Those cycling on the International Dollard Route can replace a section of the journey with this canoe route.

The route starts from the Paddle and Pedal station in Ditzum heading south. After about 1 hour, the Wynhamster Mill is reached. The resting jetty there is worth a stop. Another 30 minutes later, the destination, the Paddle and Pedal station in Ditzumerverlaat, is reached.
