The Zeeuwse Wind Wielerroute (126 km) takes you through Schouwen-Duiveland, Noord-Beveland, Zuid-Beveland, Walcheren, the Zeeland Bridge, and the Oosterschelde barrier.

Zeeland is a province that is perfect for cycling. You follow in the footsteps of great names like De Roo, Middelkamp, and Raas. During this cycling tour, you have to deal with a tough opponent: the sea wind! Straight against you or blowing hard from the side. And occasionally you can take advantage of it... You can choose the starting or ending point yourself. The route is marked with white-red signs, and you cycle clockwise. Making a stop along the way is not difficult as you pass through numerous villages and towns.
