Biesbosch National Park

National park

About this hidden gem

The Biesbosch National Park is the largest freshwater tidal area in Europe. There is much to experience. Boating along willow floodplains, canoeing through meandering creeks, walking along rugged paths, cycling along open meadows full of water birds.

Why you really want to visit this place

Go in search of beavers. Enjoy the special plants and flowers. Bring your binoculars to spot birds. Stand still and listen to the lapping of the water. Taste, feel, behold, smell the special nature. The Biesbosch is always on the move.

This is how you make a difference

Our nature reserves are special places. Let us work together to keep them pristine and protected. Want to help? With these tips, you can make a difference:

  • stay on the beaten track this time
  • keep dogs on a leash
  • Move quietly and talk softly (so as not to disturb the animals)...
