Nature in the Netherlands
Natural enjoyment
The Netherlands is blessed with every form of natural beauty imaginable, which is what makes our country so incredible. No matter where you are, every place has its own unique landscape. From the wooded Veluwe region to the rolling hills of Maastricht and from the stunning coastline of Zeeland to the charming Wadden Islands: it's all about natural beauty. Want to join us in a celebration of nature?
The Netherlands boasts 12 provinces, each with their own distinct identity and natural beauty. Gelderland has the beautiful forests and vast heath in the Veluwe National Park where deer and boar roam. In the provinces of Brabant and South-Holland, you can board the ferry to spot birds and beavers at work in the wetlands of the Biesbosch. Drenthe is popular with hikers and cyclists who wish to visit the 5000-year-old megalithic tombs called Hunebedden. From the picturesque villages of Friesland to the rolling hills of Limburg, the Netherlands offers something for everyone.
