Water sports and activities around Akkrum

Akkrum sits at the heart of the Frisian lake district, a region of interconnected lakes, canals and waterways that is well suited to sailing, motor boating, canoeing and cycling. The Sneekermeer and the broader area around Sneek are within easy reach by water, as are the smaller villages and nature reserves that border the lakes. Akkrum itself has restaurants and shops, so provisions and a meal out are straightforward. For those who prefer dry land, the surrounding polder landscape offers flat cycling and walking routes through typical Frisian countryside.

Getting to Akkrum
