Walk along the beach and across the Veerse Gatdam

The wide sandy beach is just a short walk away and is perfect for a stroll in every season. Follow the route across the Veerse Gatdam and enjoy views of the North Sea and Lake Veerse Meer.

The Dutch Coastal Path (Nederlands Kustpad) also crosses the Veerse Gatdam. Looking for a longer walk? Follow the summer route around Lake Veerse Meer towards Veere and cross the water by the bicycle and pedestrian ferry.

Another highlight is Oranjezon nature reserve. This 400-hectare area of dunes and woodland near Vrouwenpolder has a variety of walking trails. Keep your eyes open and you may spot roe deer, fallow deer, cattle or wild ponies along the way.

From Fort den Haak, you can step straight into the Zeeland landscape.
