Welcome to De Hoge Blekker, with its 33 meters the highest dune in the entire Flemish coastal region. A striking appearance and an impressive eye-catcher. The dune used to be a fixed navigation point for sailors. From a distance they could see the white back as a kind of 'flash' ('bleach' is the local dialect for 'flash'). The Hoge Blekker is a drifting dune that has covered some distances over time. The dune now covers an area of approximately 33 hectares. Enough room for a picnic stop!

Beautiful semi-paved walking path that goes through De Doornpanne. Every season is colored differently here. With a bit of luck, donkeys or ponies will come to greet you.

At 33 meters above sea level, the Hoge Blekker, the dune that gave its name to the domain, is not only the highest dune (ridge) on our Flemish coast, but also a beautiful nature reserve, covering approximately 18 hectares. Blekker or Blinkaart is the common name for a bare dune hill that reflects sunlight (bleaching or shining). It was a permanent beacon for sailors who saw its white crown shining from afar ('bleaching' in the local dialect). At the origin of the Hoge Blekker and the adjacent dune massif are parabolic dunes that formed between the 16th and 19th centuries.

Together with the IJzermonding and the Zwin, the Krakeelduinen are part of the Natura 2000 area Dune Areas. After WWII the dunes were used as a water extraction area, but nowadays the dune area is being restored to its natural glory. You will now find Scottish Blackface sheep grazing the area and since the concrete has been removed the sand can flow freely again.
