All bike Paths in the Netherlands Mapped
Apr 20, 2022
The Netherlands is among the most bike-friendly countries globally, with 36 percent of Dutch people listing the bicycle as their most systematic way of getting around on an ordinary day instead of the auto (45 percent) and public transportation (11 percent). Cycling has a share of 27 percent of all urban and rural journeys nationwide. In municipalities, this is even higher, such as Amsterdam, which has 38 percent, and Zwolle 46 percent. The Netherlands is a densely settled and extraordinarily flat nation, which means that travel distances tend to be short, even between towns. This high commonness of bike trips is encouraged by impressive cycling infrastructure.
