Description
| Dwingelderveld National Park is the largest contiguous wet heath area in Western Europe and is located in the middle of Drenthe. The park has an area of approximately 37 square kilometers and consists of heaths, forests, fens, and sand drifts. The park is home to many plant and animal species, including rare birds such as the common crane, nightjar and stonechat. In addition, the park is also a popular destination for hikers, cyclists and horse riders because of the many routes that have been mapped out. There are also several lookout towers and bird hides, where visitors can observe the flora and fauna of the park. The Dwingelderveld National Park is a wonderful example of the natural beauty and diversity that the Netherlands has to offer. Be sure to visit the visitors-centre to find out more about the area and what you can do. There are also smaller visitor centers in Spier and Dwingeloo. |

Frequently asked question about National Park
How did national parks come about?
The implementation of a national park originated in 1865 in the United States. The biggest difference between an ordinary city park and the national parks was that the influence of human intervention had to be very limited in a national park. Nevertheless, the national parks also had to be accessible to visitors.
Is a national park accessible for free?
A nature reserve must be actively managed in order to maintain it, and that costs money. As an independent foundation, the Park operates a largely (88%) subsidy-independent operation and is therefore almost entirely dependent on income from entrance fees. However, this may differ per park and country, information about entrance rates can always be found on the website of the Park. national park or umbrella organization.
What is a National Park?
A national park is a park in which the protection of nature comes first, albeit almost always in coordination with human activities (especially recreation, often also forestry, agriculture, hunting and fishing, sometimes mining) in and around the national park.
Who manages a national park?
In the National Parks of the Netherlands, the site managers PWN, Staatsbosbeheer and Natuurmonumenten work together on the management of nature. In other countries, these are similar organizations that work together in the management of national parks.
