Nature park full of water, reeds and adventure for children
The visitor centre of National Park De Alde Feanen in Earnewâld is the starting point for a beautiful low-lying peat marsh just outside Akkrum. Children search for water creatures, ride along on the ferry, play pirate on a real pirate ship and romp around in the play and discovery garden. At the desk you will find boating, canoe, walking and cycling routes as well as backpack routes specially designed for children.

Story
De Alde Feanen is one of the most beautiful stretches of Frisian nature: reeds, water and birds as far as the eye can see. From the visitor centre you step straight into the marsh, on foot or by boat. For the little ones there is the Pettebosk play forest and the pirate ship, so that discovering here never gets boring.
