    Tips

    Know that you are a guest here in this beautiful landscape. Respect, deer, fallow deer and wild Shetland ponies roam the dune area.
    Large areas of dunes have never been fully planted and here you will find herbs and flowers such as dune violets, ragwort and heron's bill. Water has been extracted in this beautiful landscape for a long time. Initially, the groundwater was pumped up, but when the dune dried out and nature started to suffer, water from the Haringvliet was pumped into the dune area. This still happens. The three large lakes in the area are water extraction sites. A pleasure to see how nature takes its course here. Dragonflies, seagulls, ducks, geese and grebes are the regular visitors to these places.

      Here too we come across a group of grazing ponies. Keep your food well hidden as they become very intrusive when they notice that you may have food with you.

        stray cattle. Keep your distance. Despite this, it is still allowed to walk with a leashed dog.
