As true island experts at heart, we know: Terschelling never ceases to surprise. No matter how well you know the island, nature here is constantly changing. New dunes are formed, cranberries colour the fields in autumn, and after the interplay of tides, beautiful patterns remain in the mudflats. At Puur Terschelling, we live by the rhythm of the island. We know the hidden spots, the quiet paths, and the moments when nature reveals its very best. On Terschelling, no two days are the same.

The Boschplaat on Terschelling is a natural area you simply must visit. A vast European nature reserve where silence and untouched nature come together. This remarkable area, bordering the UNESCO Wadden Sea World Heritage Site, is characterised by rare dune valleys, salt marshes, and wet heathlands. Here, you will discover rare birds and unique plant life. The Boschplaat is also officially recognised as a Dark Sky Park. It is one of the few places in the Netherlands where the night is still truly dark, allowing you to admire the starry sky in all its glory. At Puur Terschelling, we bring our Puur activities to life in this stunning environment. From the back of a horse, you will experience peace and open space. During a Puur covered wagon tour across the Boschplaat, you will experience the island feeling at its very best—respecting nature while leaving room for wonder, by day and by night.

A piece of island history on the North Sea beach! The Drenkelingenhuisje is a wooden house on stilts with a remarkable past. It once provided shelter to stranded sailors and shipwreck survivors. Today, the Drenkelingenhuisje still radiates that same sense of calm and connection with nature. At Puur Terschelling, we take you there by covered wagon, on horseback, or in a Land Rover to this unique location.
