The beautiful village of Overleek is located under fifteen minutes from Amsterdam. It is known for Overleek Tea Garden where, amid the wildlife, you can enjoy a sumptuous High Tea beside the water. And Overleek also happens to be situated in the most beautiful backyard of Amsterdam! Take a well-stocked picnic basket with you from the Tea Garden and get into an electric boat, where you can unwind completely in the Waterland nature. Sail past extensive meadows, reeds, winding dikes, cows and traditional farmhouses.
Waterland is also a perfect spot for hiking and cycling, with many routes that pass through this green area. Overnight stays are available at local farm hotel Overleekerhoeve, where you can experience the farming life close up.
