Commune: Brederwiede
The picturesque village of Giethoorn lies in an extensive area of former peat bog to the east of the Noordoostpolder. Traversed by a network of canals, it has hardly any streets, the main means of transport being small boats which are punted along the canals. Accordingly it is popularly known as the "Venice of the North".
There are cycling paths as well.
