Giethoorn is a very special village nestled within a magical landscape of lakes, waterways, marsh forests and quaking bogs. But these waterlands are not a natural phenomenon, they have been shaped by peat cutters and reed harvesters working hand in hand with nature over hundreds of years. This story of the relationship between people and the land is an important one that deserves to be told. As the people shaped the land, so the land shaped the people. This was also the inspiration behind our interactive tour. Learn all about Giethoorn’s peat and reed cutters and their fleet of traditional shallow-draft boats - the workhorses of the village without which the farmers would have been lost.
Let us guide you as you gently glide down Giethoorn’s narrow waterways passed flower-filled meadows, peatlands and reed beds. Relax as you float along the water listening to the sounds and really taking in the unspoiled nature of the breathtaking Weeribben Wieden National Park. Then explore Giehoorn’s picturesque village cen- tre and let yourself be surprised by the countless small wooden bridges, beautifully landscaped gardens, and gorgeous thatched farmsteads on their individual private islands.
