Reestdal Nature Reserve
Bedste tid at besøge
Come in May for the godwit courtship displays and marsh orchids, or on a misty summer sunrise when the fog lifts off the flooded fields. Autumn evenings bring long V-shaped flocks of geese peeling overhead.
Budgettips
Wandering the reserve and its marked walks costs nothing at all. Free parking waits at the visitor center, so the only real expense is a coffee from the farm shop afterward.

Om
Hurtige fakta: Den bugtende flod Reest danner en provinsgrænse, så den ene bred hører til en anden provins end den anden. Cirka 200 fuglearter er blevet registreret på tværs af dens oversvømmede høenge og tørvemoser.
Højdepunkter: I majs daggry ruller de boblende, fløjtende kald fra hundredvis af ynglende stor kobbersnepper hen over de oversvømmede enge som et flydende orkester. Følg den gamle hulvej, og du passerer de nummererede Kei-grænsesten, jernhættede markører, der i århundreder har bilagt provinsielle stridigheder.
Insidertips
- Wear rubber boots or waterproof shoes in wet months, since the meadow paths flood as the Reest rises.
- Bring binoculars and reach the wooden birdwatching screen before sunrise for the strongest dawn chorus.
- Skip the main dike trail on summer weekends and follow the river bend instead, where the birds feed undisturbed.
- Pack insect repellent from June onward, when mosquitoes swarm the damp reed beds.
