Useful info
In the heart of Friesland, between Heerenveen and Joure, you'll find Landal Waterpark Oudehaske. Stay in a modern lodge on the Nannewiid, a quiet lake free of motorboats. Every accommodation has a private terrace by the water, and some even feature extras like a sauna, outdoor shower, or a swimming ladder. Thanks to its small-scale setup and location among the greenery, the park offers complete peace and privacy. The views over the lake, the silence, and the surrounding nature create a uniquely relaxed atmosphere—whether you're actively exploring the water or simply unwinding on your terrace.
There's plenty to do on and around the park. You can swim, paddleboard, windsurf, or even sail an 'optimist' on the lake. For a bite to eat, walk to Restaurant By Aalzen right next to the park, or drive to Joure or Heerenveen for more options.
The latter is known as a sports city, with the Abe Lenstra Stadium and Thialf skating stadium where you can experience top-class sport up close. The area also offers plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling, or exploring one of the Frisian lakes. Oudehaske is a perfect base for those who want both peace and quiet and the option to be active.
