Holwerd is the ideal base for exploring Northern Friesland

Friesland Holland Travel has launched a brand-new travel packages page: Base in Holwerd. Available in Dutch, English and German, the new page features ten carefully curated multi-day travel packages that make Holwerd the perfect base for discovering the northern part of the Dutch province of Friesland.

Holwerd: the perfect base

More and more travellers prefer staying in one location throughout their holiday and exploring the surrounding area from there. With its new Base in Holwerd travel packages, Friesland Holland Travel responds to this growing trend. From the charming village on the Wadden Sea coast, the most beautiful destinations in Northeast Friesland are easily reached by bike or car.

“Holwerd enjoys a unique location between the UNESCO World Heritage Wadden Sea, the historic Eleven Cities town of Dokkum and the characteristic Frisian terp landscape,” says Sytze, travel expert at Friesland Holland Travel. “This combination makes it an excellent base for travellers looking for peace and quiet while still wanting to discover something new every day, without having to change accommodation.”

Ten inspiring travel packages

The new page offers ten different travel packages, each catering to a variety of interests. Options include a day trip to the Wadden Island of Ameland, a scenic cycling tour through the Noardlike Fryske Wâlden National Landscape, or a visit to the Frisian capital of Leeuwarden, complete with a charming canal cruise through its historic city centre aboard a traditional praam boat.

Nature and culture enthusiasts will also find plenty to enjoy. One of the packages explores the distinctive terp landscape, visiting picturesque villages such as Moddergat, Dokkum and Birdaard, as well as Hegebeintum, home to the highest terp in the Netherlands. Every package has been designed to allow visitors to experience the diversity of Northeast Friesland at their own pace.

For overnight stays, Friesland Holland Travel works with several accommodations in Holwerd. Guests can choose from a comfortable Pod or Safari Tent at Camping Zee van Tijd, a room at Hotel Zee van Tijd, or one of the brand-new De Waling Suites.
