If you have extra time, here are two recommendations. Visit Museum Giethoorn ‘t Olde Maat Uus. This is a living farm complete with period-costumed volunteers. You will learn how the area once prospered by cutting and drying peat for fuel. Giethoorn specialized in a hard peat called sponturf. You will also tour a farmhouse, boathouse and fisherman’s house. Nature lovers and bird watchers enjoy renting a boat or canoe to float through National Park Weerribben-Wieden, Europe’s largest fenland (shallow march).
