Biking and hiking tips

Bikers, get in gear for the approximately 35.000 kilometres of Dutch cycling tracks and discover our castle routes and nature trails or climb the highest Dutch mountain available.

Hikers, put on your walking shoes and explore the 10.000 kilometres of walking routes that criss-cross the Netherlands. Hike along one of the many Long-distance Hiking Trails (LAW) or shorter routes like, for example, the Clog Trails (Klompenpaden) or County Trails (Streekpaden).

Where to start or end your trip?

Bikers find routes via: Nederland Fietsland and the Fietsersbond. From the Netherlands to and in Belgium you can find your way via Fietsnet. Bikers can explore trails via: Wandelnet or mooisteroutes.nl.

Frequently asked questions

  • Do I need to make reservations in advance?

    We advise you to contact a guest address well in advance to make sure that there is a place to stay for you. In addition, it is also nice to get to know each other a bit over the phone and discuss mutual expectations. You are of course free to arrive at an address without making prior arrangements. 

  • Can I take a look, even though I'm not a member?

    We can give you just a global overview of addresses for Friends. If you are not registered as Friend, you do not have access to specific information or locations of guest addresses. The specific address details can only be viewed by Friends with a valid membership. In the Netherland more than 5500 listed guest adresses can be found, often near famous hiking and biking trails. Register as Friend. 

  • How do I find a guest address along my route?

    You can choose a destination or route via the tool 'find guest address' in the menu. The site shows all address results on an overview map. You can zoom in and find guest address details after logging in to our website. Please adjust your search for specific requirements like, for example, guest addresses that welcome dogs.

PLEASE NOTE: SITE NOT AVAILABLE FROM MARCH 24 - 31.

Dear Friends and guest addresses,

Behind the scenes we are working on a new IT system. It will go live at the end of this month. Therefore, the website will be closed from Wednesday March 24 to Tuesday March 31. From April 1st you are more than welcome and almost all services will be available again. In the meantime, we would like to refer you to the booklet and of course the helpdesk is available for questions.

After April 1, there are a few perks that you will probably have to wait for. For example, the notice board (‘Prikbord’) for finding a cycling or walking buddy is not immediately back. The gift membership that you may want to give to a good friend is also temporarily unavailable. We try to fix this as soon as possible.

Warning: please save your favorite guest addresses and the information and contacts of the Prikbord’. We are doing our best, but we may not be able to put this information back on the site. If all goes well, you will not notice the new system and you will soon be able to use the service you are used to again.

Thanks for your patience and a warm greeting,

Team Vrienden op de Fiets
