De Fryske Marren

De Fryske Marren lies around Tjeukemeer in Friesland, Netherlands, where low-lying farmland is threaded by lakes and canals. Formed in 2014 from several former municipalities, it takes its Frisian name, meaning “The Frisian Lakes,” from this water-bound setting. Tjeukemeer is Friesland’s largest lake and a focal point for sailing and other watersports, while dykes trace the meeting point of open water and polders. The municipality also includes Sloten, one of the eleven historic Frisian cities, on the route of the renowned Elfstedentocht skating event.
