Alde Feanen National Park
The Alde Feanen is a real low moor area to which the park also owes its name. But that hasn't always been the landscape. The park in Friesland has endured many natural changes over the centuries. After the Ice Age, plants, trees and animals took over the area. And due to the growth of greenery, the first farmers settled. Peat formation was caused by the rising sea level, making the area uninhabitable for a long time. Several attempts at water management and reclamation and the active extraction of peat and hay kept farmers battling the water. At the beginning of the 20th century, the 'It Fryske Gea' association started with nature development, which became increasingly valuable for many. Now the National Park is a varied peat bog with an influx of holidaymakers who dedicate their visits to water sports, walking and cycling routes and viewing platforms for spotting the more than 100 species of birds. The area is the ideal place to sleep for black-tailed godwits returning from their journey from West Africa.
