Has anyone here been to the Zuiderzee open air museum at Enkhuizen and be able to give me some guidance, please?
Context: I’m going to be in the Netherlands next week on a very low-key trip after recovery from surgery/chemo.
Staying in Utrecht for part of it and was thinking of jumping on a train to Hoorn and/or Enkhuizen, just to see some small seafaring towns that I haven’t seen before (I go to NL quite a lot).
I was wondering if the Zuiderzee museum would suit a 60-something woman travelling alone, who is unsure of her fitness and energy levels. I do really like these kind of places usually although I don’t have like people pretending to be from the olden days talking to me. I’m okay if I can ignore them (I was once mistaken for a historical re-enactor while wearing my normal clothes at Colonial Williamsburg, but that’s another story.)
I guess my main question is: is it the kind of place that will exhaust me? Is there lots of walking over a wide area with no shelter? Or are there lots of places to sit down/shady areas? It’s going to be hot next week. Will it be full of kids and families in late June or are they still at school?
I may be talking myself out of it and putting it on my list for a future visit. Would value opinions if you’ve been there. It’s really tricky because I’m used to being superfit and - well, I’m not right now.
