Kuiertocht Bolsward
Bolsward is one of the Frisian eleven cities. The town is surprisingly charming. Just outside the city center lies Julianapark, established in 1913. Taking a short detour from the route to visit this park is definitely worth it. Do you have any energy left? Then take a stroll through the old streets in the city center.
A "kuiertocht" is a short walking route. So, it probably won't surprise you that in Frisian, "wandelen" translates to "kuierje". You can easily combine a leisurely stroll with an activity in the area, or choose to embark on another leisurely stroll. An overview of all leisurely strolls can be found here.
