Grouw, Jirnsum, Warga

During this route you will cycle through the special National Park of the Hoge Venen. This National Park is very special because of its varied landscape and many animal species. So you can search here for the own 'Big Five' of the De Hoge Venen. This consists of the sea eagle, roe deer, bittern, cormorant and the stork. During this route you will also pass several Frisian villages. A good example of this is the village of Grouw with its two protected village views. One of the beautiful Frisian villages to visit during this route.
