In the provence of South Holland lies along the North Sea, between the beach and inland and close to the big cities, National Park Hollandse Duinen. A unique area where estates, dunes, bulb fields, peat meadows, villages and cities alternate. It is very diverse, always different and full of experience. With a bit of luck you can see foxes, deer and seals. And that in the middle of the most densely populated area of the Netherlands. The National Park Hollandse Duinen is more than just nature. Hollandse Duinen is unique because of the proximity of the sea, the villages and towns, the valuable nature in and around the dunes and the rich culture and history. The mix of natural and man-made landscapes makes the area so 'Dutch'. You experience the interaction between man and nature. You see the results of our old struggle against and our new connection with the water.
