    A beautiful forest. A big disadvantage is that there is only one entrance. There you have to leave this beautiful piece of nature again. Because of this fact, I hardly believe that there are such things as larger, wild animals here. The area is too small for that.

    Certainly great for a walk.

      Visit in April to mid-May. Then the hyacinths bloom

        The Wildrijk is a small, romantic forest near Sint Maartensvlotbrug. It is an old forest, one of the few that was spared when the North Holland Canal was dug and the agricultural land was set up. You hike on narrow, winding paths through the forest. Countless mushrooms grow here in autumn, but this forest is particularly special in spring. Then a sea of hyacinths grows in the forest between the ferns and wood anemones (end of April is the best time). There is also a bat bunker in the forest and many birds and butterflies live there. The well-signposted loop is approximately 2 km long.
