The beautiful nature of Groningen

Groningen is famous for its incredible natural sights as it has to offer various possibilities for nature-based vacations for any family, group, or couple. The province is located in the northern Netherlands and, therefore, has an exit to the Northern Sea. One-third of the country itself is below sea level, contributing to a large number of lakes and canals spread across the territory of Groningen. Home to Lauwersmeer national park, where sweet and salty waters once blended, Groningen has one of the many man-made dams built out of fear of floods due to the rising sea level. As the dam keeps the seawater away from the area, beautiful landscapes that were once at the bottom of the sea uncovered and are now welcoming local and international tourists to witness the amazing sight.

The natural territory of the province is home to species such as foxes, Konik horses, and Scottish Highland cattle which can all be encountered around your accommodation in Groningen. In terms of the flora, the Netherlands is famous for its tulip fields, as oak and pine woodlands thrive in the Groningen area. Nevertheless, more interesting is the bird species inhabiting the area and particularly the Lauwersmeer national park. The area is essential for bird migration, specifically geese and ducks, attracting ornithologists from around the globe. Some rare species such as the sea eagle and white-tailed eagle all nest in the national park.

What can you do around your accommodation in Groningen?

There is a variety of activities that you can undertake during your vacation in Groningen province. The territory of the Netherlands is rather flat which provides a positive environment for biking trips around the local forest. As Groningen has a big exit to the sea fishing is also a popular activity, however, you must check the government requirements and restrictions about the specific fishing regions. Due to the diversity of birds around the area of Groningen, birdwatching especially during the migration seasons is a wonderful choice to spend your afternoons. Interestingly, the Lauwersmeer national park has been named an official Dark Sky Park, meaning that in Groningen nature’s darkness is preserved and you can experience a beautiful starry sky. Stargazing contributes to an absolutely beautiful holiday which is now possible with Nature.house’s Groningen accommodation options.
