Hiking around Lisse
Discover the trails around Lisse
Walking is the best way to explore Lisse's surroundings! The Bollenstreek hiking network will take you to the most beautiful spots. You'll walk along paths past colourful bulb fields and green meadows. This network uses a node system. There are panels at various starting points and along the routes, displaying the route maps, junctions and information about the area.
Along the way, posts show you the way from node to node. In this way, a total of 100 kilometres of signposted hiking trails have been created. The route largely follows paved paths, but also goes across meadows and along bulb fields. Crossings and bridges have been made in the countryside. Adventurous towing bridges provide the crossing in a number of places.
