Zwin dunes and polders
The Flemish nature reserves, Zwin Dunes and Zwin Polders (222 hectares), together with their big brother, the Zwin, form a continuous nature area in the Zwin area.
This precious nature reserve is accessible for different types of recreation. Riders, hikers and cyclists all have their own separate paths. Close to the sea, there is an area of 15 hectares where visitors are allowed to walk around freely and experience nature directly. The paved paths make it possible to do a complete tour by wheelchair. There is also a walking path for the blind.
There are different European protect habitats with many rare plant species and animals, thanks to the combination of sea, beach, forest and polder.
The Kleyne Vlakte is an important wintering area for many birds.
The forest ranger and his team are in charge of maintaining this area of restored nature. To this end, they are assisted by Koniks, Highland cattle, Shetland ponies and Flemish sheep.
