The Helderse Valley is the place in Den Helder where nature and sustainability converge. You can walk straight from the city into the dunes. Whether you want to play, learn, socialize, or simply relax: it's all possible here.
Discover nature from above
The permanent exhibition offers a bird's-eye view of the region's nature reserves. Walk across a huge map of Den Helder and its surroundings. From dunes to marshes and from beaches to forts: you'll get an instant overview and inspiration.
Sustainable thinking and acting
In the sustainability center, you can learn more about your impact on nature. You'll find up-to-date information, interactive display cases, and changing exhibitions. In the "forest studio," you can view a unique historical collection.
For children and adults
There's a petting zoo, a playground, and regular activities, such as workshops, outdoor activities, and exhibitions. A wildlife sanctuary is also under construction. Perfect for a family outing or an afternoon out of the city.
