Bird-watching in the Alde Feanen
Earnewâld, Grou, Wergea, Warten
Get on your bike, bring your binoculars or camera and go on your way. National Park De Alde Feanen is definitely worth a visit, but it is also an important habitat for many different birds. To make things a bit easier for you, we have added four departure points to this cycle route, from where you have a good chance of seeing the most extraordinary birds. Important: during this route you will encounter a few ferries. So take some cash with you and check https://www.gastvrijgrou.nl/ to be sure if the ferries are sailing as well.
