In between are woods, meadows, hedgerows and moors on sand ridges, and lakes and canals in the lower-lying areas, the remnants of peat extraction. Small farmsteads, horse farms, hotels, outdoor cafes on the waterfront and in the woods, artisanal products and other interesting sights form a lovely decor. It\u2019s a fantastic area for cycling but also for boating in a small motorboat.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_36476\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36476\" class=\"size-full wp-image-36476\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frieslandhollandtravel.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/oost-friesland-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-36476\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Visitors center Drents-Friese Wold &#8211; Appelscha<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_36492\" style=\"width: 943px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36492\" class=\"size-full wp-image-36492\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frieslandhollandtravel.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/oost-friesland-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"933\" height=\"700\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-36492\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Restaurant and climbing tower &#8211; De Jongens van Outdoor &#8211; Appelscha<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_36496\" style=\"width: 535px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36496\" class=\"size-full wp-image-36496\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frieslandhollandtravel.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/oost-friesland-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"700\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-36496\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Watchtover Bosbergtoren &#8211; Appelscha<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_36484\" style=\"width: 535px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36484\" class=\"size-full wp-image-36484\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frieslandhollandtravel.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/oost-friesland-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"700\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-36484\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bridge River Lende &#8211; Oldeberkoop<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_36488\" style=\"width: 535px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36488\" class=\"size-full wp-image-36488\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frieslandhollandtravel.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/oost-friesland-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"700\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-36488\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Satirical art gallery with not existing birds &#8211; Artist O.C.
