As the name suggests, the Graafstroom is actually a dug-out canal, in the Dutch municipality of Molenlanden (province of Zuid-Holland), between Vuilendam and Hofwegen with a length of 6 kilometres. In the Middle Ages, the middle of the Alblasserwaard was a high moor area that was difficult to reach and therefore only developed later. In the second half of the 13th century a connection was made between two small peat rivers: the Goudriaan and the Alblas.
The former upper course of the Alblas was straightened by this. The Graafstroom, after which the former municipality of Graafstroom was named, merges into the Alblas between Bleskensgraaf and Oud-Alblas, at the Wijngaardeseweg. West of Oud-Alblas the Alblas has a large bend to the north and back again to the south, which is cut off by the Nauwe Alblas. The river eventually flows into the Noord near Alblasserdam.
