Do you agree that the province of Groningen is 'very far away'? Very many Dutch people do not know Groningen, or only from the news and based on a few persistent prejudices.

But, if you're reading this, your curiosity has probably won out over the prejudices. Groningen is grand and largely undiscovered for many. That makes it an attractive province for enthusiasts, because you won't find mass tourism there. Except perhaps in the city of Groningen and at the Vesting Bourtange. The city of Groningen features in quite a few international lists of the top 10 most fun cities, as well as Bourtange in the top 10 most beautiful places in the world.

The rest of the province is barren, cold and clay? No definitely not. The differences in the regions are great. The province has the endless seeming golden-yellow grain fields and the green potato fields, as well as intimate, romantic landscapes with farmlands lined with old wooded banks. The wooded area of Westerwolde is a feast for the eyes.

Enjoy the winding roads to the picturesque villages with their medieval churches, the historic borgen, the majestic Oldambt farms. Along the way, you will be surprised by great new nature reserves. Complete your experience of Groningen on the Wadden dyke and with a view of the Dollard marshes.
