On Saturday, March 8, 2025, you can participate in a special free excursion on the normally inaccessible Dordwijk estate. This walk led by experienced IVN nature guides, offers a unique opportunity to explore this historic estate.
Landgoed Dordwijk dates back to 1635 and offers a rich historical and natural landscape. The estate is known for its English landscape garden with beautiful trees including the impressive Sequoia or Giant Sequoia tree. The garden is a feast for the eyes with its winding paths that invite you to explore. Especially in spring which is now approaching. What is in bloom?
Excursion highlights:
- English Landscape Garden: Admire the grandeur of century-old trees and enjoy the serene beauty of the landscape
- Kitchen Garden: Explore the kitchen garden with a source of fresh fruits and vegetables
- Deer Camp: Observe the majestic deer living on the property
- Villas: Although the Villas on the estate are privately owned and cannot be viewed inside, you can admire the beautiful architecture from the outside
- Theme walk:' Spring is coming'
This excursion is a great opportunity to learn more about the nature and history of the estate while enjoying a relaxing walk in a unique setting.
If you come by car you can park opposite the entrance to the estate. You drive via the Dubbelsteynlaan or Burgemeester Jaslaan into the Dordwijklaan. This is a bicycle path, but not prohibited for local traffic. Almost at the end, you cross a small bridge on your right and there is the parking lot.
