The province of Groningen offers countless days out for the whole family. Are you finding it hard to see the wood for the trees? To make choosing a little easier, the ANWB organised the ‘Best Day Out in the Netherlands’ competition for the 13th time this year. The votes have been counted and the winners have been announced. These are the three best days out in Groningen.

Leens – The best day out in Groningen is DoeZoo. The zoo where you’re allowed to do just that bit more. Feel a snake, listen to emus and taste worm biscuits. All your senses will be stimulated.

That way, they can practise before tackling the bigger challenges.
