The Westfriese Omringdijk surrounds Westfriesland, from Alkmaar past Schagen and Kolhorn, Medemblik, Enkhuizen and Hoorn and then back to Alkmaar. More than 1,200 years ago, West Friesland was still a peat swamp above sea level. The early pioneers marked plots of land and dug ditches around them. That was to drain the excess water. They also built dikes and quays. All these dikes, one after the other, already formed a whole around 1250: the 150 kilometer long West Frisian Omringdijk.

Wieringen is a former island between the Wadden Sea and Zuiderzee and is wonderfully beautiful. Rolling greenery, wooded banks that protect cattle and cyclists from the wind of the sea, historic farms, cozy villages, winding roads. And the sea is always close by, and so are the sea birds. Gulls, fish thieves, spoonbills and geese call Wieringen their home.
