The Poelruiter Bird Hide

Highlight • Structure

The birdwatching huts in Flevoland offer stunning views of one of the most important bird areas in the Netherlands. In this nature reserve, which includes the Oostvaardersplassen, Lepelaarplassen, and Marker Wadden, you can spot countless bird species, from spoonbills and cormorants to white-tailed eagles. The huts are positioned so you can observe birds up close without disturbing them. The atmosphere is particularly beautiful in the early morning or at sunset.

Oostvaardersveld Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

The Oostvaardersveld was created in 1968 after the Flevopolder was drained. The area is approximately 300 hectares and is located to the north east of the Oostvaardersplassen, sandwiched between the Almere-Lelystad and Lage Vaart railway line. After the land reclamation, the area was briefly in agricultural use. It soon became apparent that it was unprofitable agricultural land and it was quickly returned to nature.

October 26, 2024: Beautiful autumn walk through the Oostvaardersveld. You will pass 4 observation huts/observation points:

- De Krakeend
- De Kleine Praambult
- De Poelruiter
- De Brentgans

On the way I saw 5 sea eagles, buzzards and at De Poelruiter I saw a kingfisher. In the reeds you can hear the strange sound of the water rail here …
