History & Context

Frisian eleven cities Tour of discovery along the eleven Frisian cities - From old narratives we know that the first Eleven City Tour on skates was held in Friesland in 1763. What we do not know, however, is who started this tradition of skating past all eleven cities of the province of Friesland (Fryslân) in just one day. This grueling tour greatly appeals to the imagination of the inhabitants of the province of Fryslân itself, of the people in the rest of Holland, and also of many foreigners. Outside the ice-skating season the Eleven City tour is also popular, as it does not necessarily have to be completed on skates. Fortunately, there are various other ways in which the route can be traveled, e.g. on foot, by bike, by canoe, on horseback, by boat, by motorbike or by car.
