National landscape Noardlike Fryske Wâlden

If you think of farming as mainly livestock and arable land, with flat fields stretching as far as the eye can see, then you're in for a surprise in the Noardlike Fryske Wâlden National Landscape. Sustainable and nature-inclusive farming before it was even a term! Here, farmers care for the landscape, and you can feel and see that harmony in everything: the rich tapestry of alder hedges and wooded banks, beautiful sandy paths, rolling meadows, and pingoes from the Ice Age. It's no wonder that many nobles chose to build their country houses in these woods.

Take your binoculairs with you; over more than 250 species of birds can be spotted here!
