Nationaal Park Duinen van Texel

Nationaal Park Duinen van Texel spans the western side of Texel, offering more landscape diversity per square metre than anywhere else in the Netherlands. Here, colourful heathlands, salt marshes, wet dune valleys, dry dunes, deciduous and pine forests, and expansive beaches form a unique natural mosaic. Winding dune paths reveal surprises at every turn—whether a bird of prey overhead or movement in the tall grass.

The park’s 130 Gastheren (local ambassadors) share firsthand tips on Texel’s nature, culture, and landscapes. For personalised advice, visit them or the visitor centre at Ecomare in De Koog.
