A bird watching screen is a shelter or observation point specially designed for observing birds in their natural environment. The screen provides shelter and camouflage, so bird watchers can watch birds without disturbing them. It allows people to observe birds up close and enjoy their behavior and beauty.

Reeuwijk Lakes

Highlight • Lake

The Reeuwijkse Plassen consist of thirteen lakes, twelve of which were created by peat extraction in the 18th century. One lake, the Broekvelden/Vettenbroek, was only created in the 20th century by sand extraction. Today, many of the lakes are used for water recreation.
