    Hiking

    Discover the charm of the Plaatsduinen, a beautiful 35-hectare dune area originating from the late Middle Ages and bordering Oostduinkerke-Dorp. The name refers to 'de platse', the dialect word for village centre – a place that literally and figuratively touches the heart of the region.

    Let yourself be surprised by the varied landscape: in the south, you'll find cosy woodlands, while elsewhere you'll walk among overgrown dunes and impressive shifting dunes. The Plaatsduinen also form a beautiful connection with the nearby Spelleplekke and the vast Ter Yde nature reserve.
