Here you are in the scenic landscape the ‘Friese Wouden’. Also typical for this area are the ‘pingo’s’, little lakes that came into existance during the Iceage and are protected. Many different birds and dear call this there home. Within a 15 minute drive you find yourself in the beautiful Lauwersmeer area, where also the boat to wadden island Schiermonnikoog departs. There are many museums, as for example the ‘Clogs Museum’ and the well-known botanical gardens 'De Kruidhof' in Buitenpost is ‘around the corner’. We have lovely cycling- and walking paths, you can go fishing, canoeing, swimming, and the lovely towns as Dokkum, Leeuwarden and Groningen offer a lot of sights and the extra’s of a town. Also for the children the Aqua Zoo in Leeuwarden is worth a visit but there are too many possibilities to tell!
