Grazing area wild Konik horses

Highlight • Natural

It is of course not guaranteed, but the chance that you will see wild Konik horses grazing here is considerable. These small robust horses are ideal for natural landscape maintenance: they can withstand harsh winters and clear the undergrowth.

Open plain with climbing trees

Highlight • Forest

Here you leave the dense undergrowth of the forest behind and are rewarded with views of open plains. Along this path you will find some impressive climbing trees. Who will come out on top?

oostkapelle.net/de/oranjezon.php beautiful nature reserve with free-roaming horses and fallow deer. Highly Recommended. There are paths of different lengths that are very well marked.

November 15, 2024,🇳🇱🦌 Damhertroute Oranjezon (15.11.2024)

The longest route in Oranjezon. No deer seen. Also few mushrooms, but yes it is already late in November. You have to pay a euro to walk here. But what is a euro?! It was quiet and peaceful today. Signage is good, only in the beginning a bit unclear and different from the map. Recommended!

Today we went to the Oranjezon Nature Reserve. €1 entry per person, you can't complain. We chose the deer route, naturally hoping to see an antlered animal, which unfortunately didn't happen except for a few droppings. Oh well, sometimes you lose, sometimes the others win. A long stretch past a water-filled anti-tank ditch (I assume they are) dragged on quite …

Superb varied walk in landscapes (forests, dunes, sea view, horses and deer ...). The paths are very well marked and perfectly passable even after a few days of rain. I advise those who have the opportunity to do this walk in autumn, in sunny weather and at the end of the day. The brightness is just exceptional on the surrounding …

In the past autumn holiday here walked with very little wind. It was so quiet at the southern part of the route that you could hear the silence. Very beautiful and special!
