Explore Sloten and the surrounding lake area from the water! This beautiful boating route takes you from Sloten along the Ie to the Brandemar, then across the Grote Brekken. Via the Lange Sleat you complete the loop and return to Sloten.

Enjoy the highlights from the water
From the water you have all the time to enjoy the scenery around you. Not long after departure, the iconic windmill De Kaai comes into view – an impressive sight, even from the water. Sail towards the Brandemar with views over wide open meadows. On the Grote Brekken, you truly feel the openness of the Frisian Lakes: sailing boats glide silently by while cows lazily graze in the background. That’s real relaxation. Via the Lange Sleat and De Ie, you slowly return to the picturesque town of Sloten. Sit back and take in the charm of the smallest of the Eleven Cities.
