View from the highest dune in the Netherlands

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great walk through the dunes, nice up and down and a lot of stairs to conquer.

Sand dunes

Highlight • Natural

Huge nature reserve, many cycling and hiking trails, well signposted. The blooming heather is very beautiful, you have to make sure you get it at the right time. We actually wanted to walk past the lake (Vogelmeer). Unfortunately, this area is closed to dogs.

Schoorl Dunes

The Schoorlse Duinen are the highest dunes in the Netherlands and a great walking area close to the coast, between Schoorl and Bergen.

This untouched dune area is great for walking. Please note: the area is fragile, so make sure you stay on the footpaths!

The Schoorls dunes are the highest at 54.4 meters and the widest at 5 kilometers in the Netherlands. Open dunes alternate with dense forests, damp plains and heathland. A paradise for hikers and nature lovers!

The hiking trails are very well signposted and easy to walk on despite the mainly sandy ground. We followed the blue trail 10 km through the area. He leads you through the interesting and varied landscape with pine forests, heathland and sand dunes to the sea and back to the visitor center.
