These Scottish highlanders can be visited all year round. Do follow the advice of the forestry: keep at least 50 meters away. The animals can behave aggressively when calves are around.

Hiking

Huis ter Heide is a hidden gem. You can enjoy walking in this watery bird paradise. During your walk, admire the noisy frogs and colorful dragonflies. You can also come face to face with Scottish Highlanders, who continue to eat undisturbed. You don't get closer to nature than this.
