The Green Heart of Holland is a rural area located in the western part of the Netherlands. It’s characterized by its expansive polder landscape, dotted with picturesque villages, farms, rivers, canals, and lakes. The region is called the “Green Heart” because it forms a green oasis amidst the urbanized areas of the Randstad, which includes cities like Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, and Utrecht. It’s often considered an excellent region for cycling due to its relatively flat terrain, well-maintained bike paths, and scenic routes. A ride around the green heart is uniquely Dutch. One will not find anything similar outside the Netherlands. This ride offers a delightful experience for both leisure riders and avid cyclists alike. It takes you past charming villages, farm fields, windmills, and alongside canals.
In this ride-along video, you ride at the speed of a trained cyclist. If you want to ride at your own speed, please look below for how you can make that possible with our indoor cycling app Open Road.

Just add music:
Most cyclists would agree that the ride to Col du Tourmalet is outstanding. But with music, opinions are very mixed. So we have added no music. Instead, we recommend adding your favorite music to the ride. It is quite simple. Mute YouTube and open a browser window. Find a site that offers music (Spotify, YouTube, etc…) pick the music you like, and enjoy the ride…
