    Lookout for bird watching.

      Bird paradise near Rotterdam
      The tower is located on the edge of the nature reserve and overlooks the grassland, swamp and ponds. All these elements make the Ackerdijkse Plassen a true bird paradise. Located close to Rotterdam, because from De Tureluur you also have a beautiful view of the skyline of the port city.

      Bird watching
      Enjoy the birds that fly, forage and breed in the nature reserve from the observation tower. In the spring you can see redshanks, godwits, avocets and black-headed gulls. In the winter months you will see thousands of ducks and geese. Climbing the tower is always worth it!

      Come visit us!
      Walk or cycle along the Ackerdijkse Plassen and you are bound to come across the lookout tower. Or take a look at the other viewpoints around the nature reserve.

        Really worth it to walk up here. Looking out over nature is great but also nice to see the skyline of Rotterdam!
