Hiking

The four insects are not the least: the green sand beetle, red wood ant, the bastard sand beetle and the heather butterfly are not only fun to play with! They are enlarged versions of animals that you can actually encounter here in the sand and the surrounding forests. The dunes of this area form a special habitat for many animals and plants that are very rarely found elsewhere.
