Dark Sky evening walk

Discover the Dark Sky Park Terschelling: Join an excursion to one of the highest dunes in the vast nature reserve of De Boschplaat and experience the darkness. Listen to the sounds of the night and hear fascinating stories about this area. After a brief introduction, you will set off on foot for a 1.5-hour walk with the guide. In clear weather, you will see the starry sky and discover the Milky Way. Unique! During the summer months, the nights are short and it does not get completely dark. During this period, you will experience the onset of darkness together with the guide.

Mooi!

Mooi om in het donker op de Boschplaat te wandelen. Wij hadden helaas wind en regen. Hierdoor geen sterren of bijzondere dieren gezien. Maar ondanks dat hebben we toch een vermakelijke avond gehad in het donker samen met een enthousiaste boswachter!

Mooie tocht

Een mooie tocht waarbij het steeds donkerder werd en we een prachtige lucht en zonsondergang zagen. Langzamerhand werden de sterren zichtbaar, al was het net volle maan geweest. De gids was erg enthousiast en had veel te vertellen. We hadden een nogal luidruchtige groep, dat was wel jammer.

Een verhalende belevenis!

De avond van de wandeling zorgde de bewolking voor een beperkt zicht op de sterren. Jos, de gids wist ons goed te vermaken met de vele verhalen over het eiland, de historie, de bewoners, de natuur en de vogels. Een mooie tocht in het donker door de natuur.
