Dijkwater
Visit the unique nature reserve Dijkwater, an area rich in history and natural beauty. Formed after the North Sea Flood of 1953, where fertile land was reclaimed and the remaining nature preserved, Dijkwater is now a diverse nature area with forests, reed fields, open brackish water, old dikes, and calcareous grasslands.
Here, rare plants such as the Harlequin, various orchids, and sea-green sedge bloom. The area is a paradise for bird lovers, with breeding greylag geese, ducks, and foraging spoonbills and egrets. Birds of prey, geese, and even deer also thrive in this varied landscape.
Explore Dijkwater through a beautiful 4.5-kilometer walk and peacefully observe the birds at the "gluurmuur" (peeping wall). Staatsbosbeheer regularly organizes excursions, with current information available on their website.
