Fri May 23, 2025 - Sun May 25, 2025

On May 23, 24 and 25, a number of Dordrecht green organizations, together with the municipality of Dordrecht, are organizing the Dordrecht 'Weekend of Nature'. On these days, nature will be in the spotlight on the entire Eiland van Dordrecht. With a varied program of activities, Dordrechters are invited to experience nature up close. With a full program of activities at approximately 20 locations, including excursions, cuttings exchange and early bird and moth tours in the city, the countryside and in the Biesbosch nature reserve. 

With the Weekend of Nature, the municipality and green organizations want to draw attention to the diversity of plants and animals on the island of Dordrecht. Good biodiversity is important for the climate and for a healthy living environment. For plants, animals and people. Throughout the Netherlands, nature is under pressure. Many species of plants and animals have become rare or even extinct. Protecting and improving nature on the island of Dordrecht requires the care and attention of all Dordrecht residents.

This year's Nature Weekend will pay special attention to nature by and in the water and on the shores. 

Residents, clubs and associations are called upon to actively participate in the Dordrecht Nature Weekend. Anyone who finds nature important can organize their own activity. For example, it could be a guided walking excursion, a cutting exchange, an insect scavenger hunt, butterfly excursion or herb workshop in one's own garden. All small and large initiatives that bring nature in Dordrecht closer to its residents can be registered for the May 23, 24 and 25 program.
