Staelduinse Forest

Highlight • Forest

The Staelduinse forest is the only remaining natural forest in the Westland. It was created after 1850 on a sand ridge that the Meuse laid down over the course of centuries and later formed into a dune. Beech avenues have been laid out in the forest, which beautifully accentuate the hills. The name Staelduinen is said to be derived from the steel pins with which fishermen secure their nets in the Meuse at high tide. At low tide, the fish that swam with the river current became stuck in it. The western part of the area consists of dune grasslands, meadows and hay fields. There are many mushrooms and stinze plants in the forest. You will also find various bats here at dusk, which come from the bunkers in the area in search of food. More information in the visitors' cherry center d'Oude Koestal.
