Nature is wild about it

A wildlife safari in Lelystad? That may sound strange, but nothing could be further from the truth. In the Oostvaardersplassen, you can spot sea eagles, kestrels and buzzards. Red deer, cattle and konik horses can also be seen here in the wild. Nature is wild about it! Numerous walking and cycling routes have been set out in and around Lelystad. From a diversion in the park, to long-distance routes. Take your friends or family along and hit the trails.
