Description

A wide landscape, a beautiful coastline and picturesque villages with a rich history: Groningen has it all. This route takes you through the Hogeland, a somewhat higher area in the northeast of Groningen.

Get a breath of fresh air at the Wadden Sea
Over the centuries, the Hogeland was created by silting up of marine clay. Now you cycle through a landscape of grasslands, crooked ditches and winding dikes. On the Wadden coast you can get a breath of fresh air, but you can also spot birds in the freshwater marsh north of Uithuizen. Further on you drive along the banks of the Eems estuary, a place where you have beautiful views and see many ships.

Wierde villages
In the Groningen wierde villages you can see beautiful mansions and churches. In the heart of Loppersum you will find a characteristic atmosphere thanks to the beautiful monumental buildings. In Uithuizen you will pass the fourteenth-century Menkemaborg, one of the most beautiful of the seventeen still existing Groninger borgen.
