Water and countryside around Burdaard

Burdaard has a strong connection with water-based recreation. In spring and summer, the village sees steady boat and ship traffic along its waterways, and it is possible to hire a sloop in the village for a trip through the surrounding Frisian landscape, subject to availability. The wider area has an extensive network of cycling and walking routes through countryside marked by old farmhouses, windmills, and green meadows. In winter, the canals and ditches in the area are sometimes suitable for skating, and in rare conditions the village falls within the route of the Elfstedentocht. For shopping, culture, and a broader range of activities, the towns of Dokkum and Leeuwarden are both reachable from Burdaard. From Holwerd, a ferry runs to the Wadden Islands of Ameland and Schiermonnikoog, giving access to the Wadden Sea and its tidal landscapes.

Who this park suits
