Curious about the lesser-known stories of Haarlem’s Golden Streets? Starting with the very first steps of this playful walk, you’ll experience the thrill and beauty of discovery. Location-based riddles will show you the way to our favourite local places, including: cheesemongers, candlemakers, quiet courtyards, and cute hidden spots we’ll keep secret… for now! Fun fact: this trail was created by our co-founders, Kristina and Wendy.

This playful walk across Haarlem’s city centre sharpens your senses and encourages you to appreciate the most wonderful – and often hidden – details around you. Whether you know the city or just start exploring here, this experience gives you a perspective on discovery that will inspire your curiosity wherever you go next.
