Prehistoric burial mounds, megalithic tombs (Dutch: Hunebedden), medieval cart tracks, traditional villages and fortress towns - the LF14 shows you the history of the rural north-eastern provinces of Holland.

The mudflats of the Wadden Sea, the 70 km-long sand ridge of the Hondsrug ‘towering’ (remember: this is Holland!) over the surrounding area, river valleys, woods and heathland - it’s hard to describe this varied route in a few words. The combination of nature, history and picturesque towns make this part of Holland popular among Dutch tourists.
