Enough parking with playing fields for a picnic in the woods or on the water.

Hiking

The Voorsterbos, directly adjacent to the Waterloopbos, was the first productive forest planted after the draining of the Noordoostpolder. Originally intended to provide timber, it has evolved into a valuable nature reserve. Straight avenues lined with mature beeches and oaks recall the strict layout, while open spaces and young vegetation provide habitat for countless birds, insects, and mushrooms. Together with the Waterloopbos, the Voorsterbos forms a unique whole, where nature, culture, and history complement each other. A walk through this forest allows you to experience the transition from a strictly planned polder landscape to a vibrant and diverse woodland.
