Otter Enclosure Natuurpark Lelystad

Highlight • Structure

The Flevo landscape accommodates European otters in the enclosure that are no longer able to live in the wild due to a disability, often as a result of collisions. The otters are fed daily at 3pm.

Today a hike through the Lelystad Nature Park in the Netherlands. From the parking lot we went through the green lake landscape. At the vantage points we could see storks, geese and even a beaver. Unfortunately I couldn't take a photo of the beaver because it quickly ran away.

All in all, this tour was wonderful with the best weather.
