Great walk through the dunes, nice up and down and a lot of stairs to conquer.

Very nice view from here to both sides: land and sea. The dune is 55.4 meters high. The sign is no longer so easy to read.

Huge nature reserve, many cycling and hiking trails, well signposted. Very impressive. A lot has been done here to make it interesting for children too.

There are a few steps here. If that's too strenuous for you, you can alternatively take a route.

Climbing the highest dune in the Netherlands. At the top you will be rewarded with a great view. Most circular hiking trails through the NSG also start here.
