Walking in Spakenburg: the fisherman’s route

(4.0 km)

Walking in Spakenburg is like taking a stroll through history. Traditional costumes and old trades and crafts are still common in Spakenburg, which is also home to the largest weekly outdoor market in the Netherlands. This walking route introduces you to Spakenburg’s fisheries heritage.
The footpath takes you past old fisherman’s cottages, the shipyard and the fish market. Spakenburg has a character all its own: the village is unique thanks to the local costumes and the harbour museum with its traditional fishing boats.
