Giethoorn Watermill

Highlight • Monument

In Giethoorn, watermills play an important role in the historical landscape. These mills were originally used for grinding grain and draining the marshes to make the land suitable for agriculture.

Giethoorn Canals and Wooden Bridges

Highlight • River

Cycling through Giethoorn is definitely worth it. Giethoorn is located in the middle of the Weerribben-Wieden National Park, one of the largest wetlands in the Netherlands, and offers cyclists numerous routes through a breathtaking nature reserve. The paths lead you along quiet canals, vast reed fields and marshes, where you can admire the local flora and fauna, including water birds and perhaps even a curious heron.
