    De Doornpanne, together with De Hoge Blekker and De Schipgatduinen, form a 240 ha large dune massif. The central part is owned by Aquaduin and functions as a water collection area. Other parts have the status of Flemish Nature Reserve and are managed by the Flemish Community.

    The area comprises a variety of dune types, from shifting dunes and dune grasslands to densely vegetated pans and fixed inland dunes.


    The core of the dune complex consists of a broad depression (panne), the vegetation of which forms a mosaic of forest, scrub and open dune vegetation.

    Errond is a belt of shifting dunes, including the highest dune top of the Flemish coast (the Hoge Blekker 33 m).

      The 240 hectare De Doornpanne dune area belongs to the seaside resort of Koksijde. More than three hundred species of plants, some of which are rare, are native here and, together with the extensive dunes, form a remarkable natural landscape.
