Take a look

Discover the tranquility of the dunes in winter during a winter walk through the Grafelijkheidsduinen . You'll walk with a guide from Landschap Noord-Holland along paths and past open dune plains.

Learn about dune nature

Your guide will explain why the dunes look the way they do at this time of year. You'll notice the details: bare branches, winter tracks, and bird calls. Bring your binoculars if you have them, and you'll see even more. The walk is about experiencing, not about speed.
