If you are keen on walking or cycling, there are a number of good and challenging routes around. The local towns are bursting with history and ripe for exploration. The university town of Groningen with a vibrant ambience, contemporary fashions, range of affordable bars and restaurants, a growing international performance-art festival and the best nightlife in the region. It’s also home to the Groninger Museum, a striking and controversial vision of urban architecture and art, and a definite highlight of the region. We recommend a daytrip to Schiermonnikoog, the small island has the broadest beach of Europe and no cars allowed. We have life stock on the grounds : sheep goats, chickens, turkeys and pigs. You are welcome to interact but please be careful.
