Typical Dutch scene

Highlight • Viewpoint

It couldn't be more stereotypical, but I love it. Friesland is definitely one of my favorite regions to cycle, despite the wind that never seems to stop. The people are so friendly, cyclists greet each other and everyone is up for a chat.

Romsicht Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the edge of the Alde Feanen and the Jan Durkspolder there is a thirteen-metre-high observation tower. From the highest point you have a wide view of the bird species that breed, rest and forage here.

The tower was built on the foundations of an old farm called Romsicht, which was demolished in 1967. The thatched roof is covered with reeds that come from the polder. A wide variety of birds live here.

Very beautiful nature.
