Will this be your first time planning to come and enjoy a lovely two-day package in this part of Groningen or Friesland? And you are very fond of genuine peace, space, wide-open nature? Then your first thrill is guaranteed to be one of wonder. "Is this real?"
The landscape formed by the river Lauwers, and the character of the entire Lauwersmeer area, are of unique beauty by Dutch standards. Its crowning as a "National Landscape" and international recognition as a "Dark Sky Park" are only logical.
Get carried away on the road trip 'Van Lauwers tot Wad' through this magical, beautiful area.
The battle at the time between the Frisians and the Groningers over "what to do with the Lauwerszee?" ultimately produced only winners; for both regions North-East Friesland and North-West Groningen, for the surrounding villages and port towns, not to mention for nature and birds.
Did you know that on a beautiful winter day, you can see tens of thousands of geese just like that? 'Tis an overwhelming, magnificent sight. The chances of spotting the great white-tailed eagle are increasing by the year. The eagle has taken the Lauwersmeer area as its permanent habitat and nesting area.
But not only the views of the magnificent water plains, flora and fauna, with the imposing cloudscapes above them, make the Lauwersmeer area a world-class area.
It is also the stories about the battle against the Lauwerszee, the reclamations and life in the villages and harbour towns, such as Ezumasyl, Anjum, Veenklooster, Munnekezijl, Lauwersoog, Zoutkamp, that make a stay here an unforgettable mini-vacation.
If you are full of impressions at the end of the day, then flatter yourself at one of the excellent restaurants you will find on both the west and east sides of the Lauwersmeer.
