An Eldorado for waterfowl

In earlier times, fresh and salt water flowed together in the Lauwerszee. Fear of flooding led to the construction of a dam in 1969. A beautiful new landscape emerged on the former seabed, a true bird paradise. The nature in the Lauwersmeer is so unique that the area has been designated a National Park. Visitors are welcome day and night.

Super tour, sometimes quite a headwind

The Lauwersmeer is a truly idyllic place, there are beautiful cycle paths leading there and you can find many beaches where you can go to the harbour or where you can take a break.

Wide landscape, dominated by water.

The animals are named after the people who found them, e.g. Elton's pheasant. The chickens, ducks and pheasants have new wooden shelters with small bushes for protection. The peacocks run around freely.

Flora and fauna The park is home to a variety of orchids, marsh marigolds and wild roses. The open areas are protected from overgrowth by grazing Scottish Highland cattle. In addition to the cattle, a population of Konik horses has also been established in the national park. The national park is an important resting place for migratory birds on their journeys. In addition to common waterfowl such as geese and ducks, rarer species such as the kingfisher or birds of prey such as sea eagles and peregrine falcons can also be observed. Flamingos have also been spotted in the national park.
