Mountain bike trail at Lauwersmeer

Highlight • MTB Park

Signposted MTB trails on the coast are rather unusual but here they are really nicely done. We didn't expect so many marked paths. A big loop is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended especially for beginners.

Boardwalks in Lauwersmeer National Park

Highlight • Trail

In the wilderness on the border of Groningen and Friesland, consisting of water and islands, forests, reed fields and scrubby meadows, over 100 different birds live and tens of thousands of geese overwinter every year.

Ballastplaatbos Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Surprising piece through the woods around Marnehuizen. But pay attention to low-hanging vegetation and oncoming traffic (narrow path). The road around Marnehuizen may be covered with sand (attention for cyclists).
