This special nature reserve is located at the western tip of Schouwen-Duiveland in Zeeland and offers an unparalleled variety of landscapes.
What makes the Kop van Schouwen so special?
- Diverse nature: Walk from quiet wet dune valleys to rugged dry dunes, from peaceful wide beaches to deep forests.
- Peace and space: No mass tourism here, but expansive landscapes and calming silence.
- Rare flora & fauna: Encounter roe deer, fallow deer, konik horses, sand lizards and countless birds.
- Walking & cycling: Perfectly signposted routes with viewing towers, boardwalks and benches.
The Kop van Schouwen consists of several sub-areas, each with its own charm: the Meeuwenduinen, Zeepeduinen, Verklikkerduinen, the Vroongronden, the Verklikkerstrand, and the largest forest in Zeeland: Westerschouwen forest.
