Waterways with houseboat rentals, canal boat hire
Index of all hirers of self-drive canal boats
in the Northern regions of the Netherlands (Friesland).
Province
of Friesland
Province of Groningen
Province of Drenthe,
northern part
The Dutch province of Friesland is proud of its origins, which are carefully looked after in 'Frysk', a language which is more ancient than that of their Dutch hosts. Friesland is the most sparsely populated area of the Netherlands. The network of waterways however is amazing with a total shore length of 600 kilometers, connecting the 30 lakes. This region is considered to be the paradise of aquatic sports, with the water being of an exceptional quality. All of the ancient towns and countless villages where the time seems to have stopped, can be reached by boat. Their marinas are very well-equipped but can get crowded. From Friesland, one can continue the trip into the neighbouring province of Groningen and into Drenthe, famous dor its peat canals, which were dug both to get the peat as well as to transport it.
For connecting waterways to the South (such as the Giethoorn area), please refer to Netherlands East.
