Parks & Nature

You can hit up the Canal at any point, it's a beautiful walking trail and in the summer months it's recommended to pack a picnic and enjoy the scenery.

I LOVE this beach. Huge, never feels crowded, nice sandy beaches, gorgeous surroundings and you can access it via public transport, by bike*, or by driving. *I consider 40km a really nice bike ride.
