There are many places in the Sahara where you can observe water birds, but with this bird watching wall you can sit quietly with information about the birds that you can see here.

Hiking

The Lommelse Sahara is a sand and dune landscape with a size of 193 hectares. In the middle is a lake and all around are coniferous forests. This landscape belongs to the Bosland forest area. The Lommelse Sahara is located in the immediate vicinity of the Kempen canal over which the pedestrian bridge forms a gateway to this sandy area. The area is European protected as part of Natura 2000 area 'Valley area of the Kleine Nete with source areas, marshes and heaths'. nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lommelse_Sahara
