Vogeleiland
You pass through the town of Genemuiden where you once again cross the water on a small ferry. Continue your trip along the shore of the Zwarte Meer lake from where you will see Vogeleiland ('Bird Island'). This is where you re-enter the new land (Noordoostpolder), passing through the village of Kraggenburg, where you can stop to refuel with a revitalising coffee or lunch at the Van Saaze Hotel/Restaurant.

Regional produce
On the return trip, dismount at the Vink fruit farm where, if its autumn, you can pick your own fruit direct from the trees. Buy something delicious from the farm shop and end your journey and where you started, at the 'Het Wapen van Ens' Café/Restaurant.
