Frisian art and antiques route
Sneek, Grou, Langweer
Grou is the starting point of this unique cycle route through the heart of Friesland. Today, we will take you on a tour that harmoniously combines art and antiques with the natural beauty of this region. From Grou, we cycle through picturesque villages to the outskirts of Sneek. Via Langweer, through Joure, Akrum and Nes, you will cycle, through polder-like and vast landscape back to Grou. Along the way, enjoy the calming Frisian waters and the greenery of small nature reserves such as Potschar and Groene dijk. Don't forget to take an occasional break at one of the many ferries that not only take us across, but also let us enjoy the unique Frisian landscape. (You will find 3 ferries on this route, more about them later). Today's theme is art and antiques. In a number of towns we visit, we will stop at galleries, museums and statues, each telling its own story. From modern glass art and designer bags to bronze sculptures and antique photographs. Lovers of antique maps and other historical records will also find plenty to enjoy.
