Nauernasche Vaart & Molletjesveer
Contact
In 1632, the Nauernasche canal was dug to drain the Schermer reclamation area.
Because after the reclamation of what was once a lake, when it rained hard it proved difficult to drain the water fast enough with the mills present. Fortunately, a ferry and a bridge make it easy to get to the other side.
Molletjesveer
Over the years, at intervals, several ferries were in operation daily. From 1994, a self-service ferry was introduced, allowing passengers to cross by themselves. But this year, the ferry got a major upgrade with the introduction of a new electric ferry with skipper.
Note: Cross with the ferry Molletjesveer to the other side (see sailing times at www.veerponten.nl)(or take the bridge via nodes 90 and 91, though 4 km extra cycling) and cycle to nodes 88 and 57.
