Camping Bergumermeer is a real family campsite: the ANWB has given us a 8,3 rating.
Don't know how to sail? That's not a problem! We offer sailing lessons in Optimists and Falcons in the high season (summer holidays only). If you already know how to sail, or want to use a motor boat to get to know the area, you can hire a Falcon or motor boat here. We will also have a flatboat in the harbour in 2008 which you can use for day trips.
Bergumermeer is primarily a water sports campsite: so, of course, we can meet your water sports needs:
- Hiring Falcons, Optimists, motor boats, canoes and surfboards
- Hiring skūtsjes: you can also sail one of the famous Friesian 'skūtsjes' in a group.
- Sailing lessons. Don't know how to sail? That's not a problem. Whether it's for yourself or your children, anyone can learn to sail. Bergumermeer Recreation Centre has its own sailing school, where you and/or your children can have sailing lessons. We give lessons in Falcons and Optimists.
There are a lot of nice spots in the area: the Prinses Margriet canal in particular is very popular for fishing. And, in our restaurant or the snack bar, that's when you'll hear not just Dutch, but also German, English and Friesian, and often anglers' Latin.
Friesland isn't just the water sports province par excellence: it also offers great cycle and walking routes. It's not for nothing that, as well as the eleven-town tour on ice, Friesland also has eleven town tours for walkers and cyclists! For details of walking and cycling routes ask at Reception.
In high season, our expert, enthusiastic recreation team organises different activities for both young and old. Handicrafts, sports and games, disco evenings, etc
