National Park de Loonse en Drunense Duinen

This is a national park, close to amusementparc de Efteling and the cities Tilburg and 's Hertogenbosch/Den Bosch. This park is like a desert, surrounded by a small forest. There are 6 main entries, and at each entry there's a restaurant and lots of parkingspace available. The "duinen" (in English it's called dunes) is a great area to walk or cycle around (there is a special cycle path) and there are tracks for mountainbiking and horsebackriding. Children can build sandcastles or treehouses, and dogs love the area, because at certain places they can run around loose. It's sort of a beach without the sea! Also great for picknicking, sunbathing, children's parties, groupgames, etc. A real popular NP in our province!

Dunes like this i have seen only on the Curonian split at the Baltic sea. It's very impressive landscape. And it's very nice place for people who like have a walk. And during the warm season can to spend whole day in this place.

Reptile House De Aarde Breda

Reservation is necessary (webiste) Reptielenhuis de Aarde is the first official zoo of Breda. This mini-zoo is specialised in holding and caring for reptiles. The first impression of this miniature zoo is that everything is very clean and child friendly. Children get the chance to pet or even hold some animals, also every question will be answered by the animal carer. The enclosures are bigger than you normally see in a zoo. Every animal has its own habitat and temperature, that is how we ensure that every animals wellbeing is as high as possible. Curious..? Come see the zoo in Breda and discover the world of reptiles!

A very well maintained reptile house with many snakes, lizards and turtles. Not the biggest one but enough for me to spend 90 minutes. Feeding giant turtles with salad was my highlight. The place is spotless clean, without bad odours, the size of enclosures is sufficient for most animals and the staff is friendly. The place is a bit too far away to walk from Breda centre but with the local busses you can reach the place in 15 minutes.

National Park De Biesbosch

Reviewed By Keenomanjaro - Croydon, United Kingdom

This is a fairly large, by Dutch standards, National Park set in an unusual area of freshwater tidal wetlands, close to the city of Dordrecht. We spent an afternoon walking some of the many paths that criss-cross their way around the park and enjoyed seeing a wide variety of wildlife, from rabbits to frogs and of course innumerable types of waterfowl and other birds such as lesser spotted woodpeckers. Common sightings included grey herons, grebes, two types of egret and a few terns hovering and diving into the water. There are plenty of paths ideal for exploring by bike and we saw a fair few people out on the water in kayaks, which would no doubt give a different perspective to the park. We did try to keep our eyes out for signs of beaver activity, but had no luck on that front, so a return trip is on the cards.
