Uitkijktoren Helderse Vallei

Climb this steel tower for views, darkness and a starry sky.

On a green hill at the edge of the forest stands the Helderse Vallei observation tower. The steel structure is 15 meters high, open-plan, and has three platforms. As you climb, you'll see more and more. At the top, a 360-degree view awaits, along with a circular bench where you can relax for a while.

Be surprised by the view

Dunes, sea, forest, and sky – you see it all at once. Thanks to the open staircases and steel railings, you truly feel like you're outdoors. The tower is cleverly positioned so you don't look out onto any treetops.

Experience the dark

’At night, this place takes on a magical quality. Reflective strips guide you. The tower is a designated starbarn: an official place to admire the starry sky. Ideal for those who still want to experience the darkness.

Combine with a day in the valley

There's plenty to do in the Helderse Valley: a barefoot path, a petting zoo, an open-air theater, and sustainable exhibitions. Perfect for a day in nature with kids or friends.
