2025 Friesland Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in October)

It is autumn now and it’s nice to go on a walk in the evening to enjoy beautiful sunset. Everything is orange and even with the hue of sunset, which creates a golden color onto everything. At Rengerspark in Leeuwarden, there are different varieties of trees, including oak trees🌰🌲It’s nice to go barefoot on the grass, read under the willow tree, enjoy the fresh air, or have a picnic!🧺 In the Netherlands, you can see apple trees and berry bushes everywhere. You can pick some as snacks😋❤️so healthy!🍎 The biodiversity in the Netherlands is amazing. Nature is the life here🌿✨ 📍Buurthuis Rengerspark, Singelstraat 22, 8917 BK Leeuwarden

#europeonbudget Autumn is all about walking in the beautiful orange-hue forest. Bakkeveen is definitely one of Friesland’s best-kept secrets with all the peaceful forests, rolling heathlands, shady lanes and hidden fens. Keep your eyes open for Highland cattle, grazing sheep, sometimes even a deer can show up crossing our path. This is also mushroom season. I see so many interesting and whimsical mushrooms that I thought only appeared in children’s books🍄🍄🟫There are also old oak trees and last blooms of heather. All of them create a magical atmosphere. 🐑🦌🍂 📍Start Location: Car park at Mjûmster Wei, Bakkeveen (free of charge) 🚶♀️Distance: 10 km 👟Be sure to wear sturdy walking shoes🥾 Highlights of the walk: 🗼Bakkeveen Lookout Tower: You can get an overview of the landscape of Bakkeveen on this tower. 🌾Bakkeveen Duinen: It’s a unique dune landscape with open vistas In the middle you can see a beautiful lake like a mirror, reflecting the landscape and the trees. 🥪De Dwaler Bakkeveen 🍰 After the walk, you can dine in at the super amazing restaurant, called “De Dwaler Bakkeveen.” They have the best meal. I had the Hummus vegetable sandwich. It’s so fulfilling to enjoy this after the walk. I also had macchiato with seasonal carrot cake!🥕They also have brownie and cheese cake🍰 📍Mjûmster Wei 16c, 9243 SK Bakkeveen

Im not sure if this counts as an "adventure trip" or not, but i would say it was, for me, the most amazing adventure that you have to prepare your heart well. My trip started from Zürich, Switzerland to Strasbourg and Paris in France, and ended with Amsterdam and Friesland in the Netherlands. My flight reached Zürich around 7 PM, and then I took a train to Zürich Hauptbahnhofs to transfer to Flixbus departing to Strasbourg at 9 PM. I reached Strasbourg around midnight, then I walked around the city (or you can go directly to the train station) until my train at 5 AM the next day depart to Paris. As you know, I was cycling around Paris until my train, which actually was scheduled to depart at noon, but it got delayed by system problems turned to depart at 1 PM instead. This was where I had my first meal in Europe for one piece of pizza and cola for €10 approximately. Before that, I was eating only protein bars I prepared from my hometown for emergency. I reached Amsterdam around 6 PM before directly transferred to Friesland and ended my journey around 9 PM. So if you consider by countries, I did reach Amsterdam by 6 PM after I started my journey at Zürich 7 PM the day before. It was tough, but I had fun 95% along the trip. The other 5% is for the bad smell on the train. P.S.1 : I used 5 days flexible eurail global pass for the train route, and all the train i used for this journey cost only one day out of 5 in the pass. P.S.2 : I used Google Maps to track my journey as a diary in the last picture. #ทริปเที่ยวสายลุย
