A loop around the Rotte is always nice to cycle. From the track to the Irenebrug in Rotterdam, the loop is about 20 km. There is always something to see. A boat on the water and waterfowl.

Molen 't Slot is a grain mill. Molen 't Slot stands near the old town center, in a beautiful spot along the Hollandse IJssel River on the city ramparts. The dark green beard with a white border reads: 't Slot ANNO 1832. As early as 1581, the city council granted permission to build a grain mill on this site on the foundations of the recently demolished castle of the Heeren van Ter Gouw. Since the 2019 Heritage Day, the management of this mill has been under the control of the Association of Gouda Millers.

The Wilhelmina van Pruisenbrug is a drawbridge for pedestrians and cyclists in Hekendorp, spanning the Hollandsche IJssel River. Built in 1992 to replace a ferry, it is named after Princess Wilhelmina of Prussia, who was arrested nearby in 1787. The bridge is electrically operated by a pushbutton and is primarily used during the sailing season. It is part of the historic and touristic Princess Route.
