Together with Avenhorn, De Goorn forms the capital of the municipality of Koggenland. The former ribbon village was previously made up of meadows surrounded by ditches, which were only accessible by barge. Today, the many ditches and waterways around the Goorn are still popular with boat owners; so cast off the ropes and chug along! Do you prefer walking? Then the extensive hiking network is a great solution.
Nowadays, you'll find a shopping centre, multiple cafés and an indoor swimming pool in De Goorn. The village is also near the Ursemmer Lake where you can camp at Ursemmerhof.
