THE LANDSCAPE

Berger- and Egmondermeer: Quiet water, rich wildlife

The Berger- and Egmondermeer provide low-key waterways where paddlers can focus on surrounding flora and fauna as they move at their own pace through open water and reed-fringed edges.

THE ROUTE

A route that can extend into Alkmaar’s canals

Beyond the meers, paddlers can plan a circuit that continues into Alkmaar’s historic grachten for a contrasting stretch of urban waterways and architecture.

THE KIT

Simple, hourly rentals for self-directed days on the water

Kano’s are available for hire by the hour so you can build a short outing or a longer paddle around the meers and into nearby canals.

What the day feels like

What the outing feels like

This is a self-directed paddling experience from Go with the Flo’ot: you launch into calm meers, watch the shoreline vegetation shift from open water to reeds, and can choose to continue into Alkmaar for a very different waterway passage — all with local route guidance available.
