across the causeway, meant to add?

The cycle path is closed until 2025 so cycle.travel won’t route across it. There is a bus shuttle for cyclists – c.t doesn’t support bus routing but you could plan your route either side as usual. https://theafsluitdijk.com/bicycle-bus-timetable/

Wow, that is unbelievably helpful. Thank you so much. We will be fully laden with front and rear paniers as big cycle tour. Do you know if the bus takes touring bikes?

From https://www.holland-cycling.com/blog/301-afsluitdijk-closed-for-cyclists

If your bike is more than 0,80m broad or 1.90 m long your bike will not fit on the bus. On request alternative transport can be arranged. If you are coming with a larger group, extra busses can be arranged too. For this you need to contact the Loket Afsluitdijk at least two work days in advance: phone 0800-6040, or email: [email protected]. If you have any other questions about the closure of the Afsluitsluitdijk for cyclists, please contact the Loket Afsluitdijk.
