Will we ever hear these words again? Friesland is forever tied to ice skating and the Eleven Cities Tour. If you were born in Friesland then you will have learned to ice skate almost before you learned to walk, this is how deeply it is rooted in the culture. Has it been freezing a lot? Get your ice skates out of storage because it is inevitable: this is the ultimate Winter activity in Friesland. Apart from ice skating on natural ice there are also multiple opportunities to go indoor ice skating. There are beautiful rinks both in Thialf in Heerenveen and in the Eleven Cities Hall in Leeuwarden. But we know: outside on the natural ice, while ice skating through a wintery landscape, who wouldn't fall in love with Friesland?
➣ The first Eleven Cities Tour was held on January 2nd, 1909
➣ The tour is 200 kilometers long
➣ King Willem-Alexander participated when he was 18 years old while using the name W.A. van Buren
➣ The Eleven Cities Tour was started to get from city to city during the Winter because it was too slippery to go by horse cart
➣ The Tour itself was even held during the Second World War, in 1941 and 1942
➣ During the hardest Tour in 1963, when it was freezing 18 degrees Celsius, only 69 out of the 9294 participants managed to finish
The fall and the winter also offer some nice vacation periods, whereby a vacation to Friesland should, of course, not be left out. How about getting a breath of fresh air along the Frisian lakes during the fall vacation? Or cozily spend the holidays together in a house by the water during the Christmas vacation! Of course, Saint Nicholas should not be left out either. The good holy man likes to visit Tusken de Marren as part of his busy schedule. Of course, a vacation outside these periods is also recommended. You can, of course, spend a nice week, weekend or midweek away in Friesland at Tusken de Marren. Be surprised by the beauty of the Frisian nature during the colder months.
