Van Ewijcksluis lies anchored between the waters of the Amstelmeer and the Waddenzee. Get on your bike and follow the beautiful route from intersection 18 that winds straight through the panoramic polders of Anna Paulowna. Or take the path over the Amsteldiepdijk. This famous cycle route beside the waters of the Waddenzee and Amstelmeer ends at the former island of Wieringen. On a summer's day, don't forget to stop and take a refreshing dive in the water.
Van Ewijckssluis originally began at the lock (between Lage Oude Veer and the former Amsteldiep) and for many years was the home port of dike workers This small village is also home to an authentic pumping station. Van Ewijckssluis also has a small marina. If you want to relax completely then an overnight stay in this beautiful village is highly recommended. Van Ewijcksluis has various bed & breakfasts, a hotel and a campsite. Enjoy breakfast beside the water!
