Walking in and around Rockanje

Rockanje lies on the west side of Voorne, surrounded by the dense dune area of Voornes Duin and a wide North Sea beach.

• Starting point in the dunes: the Tenellaplas visitor centre lies in the middle of Voornes Duin, among woods, damp valleys and quiet lakes.
• Five short routes: all walking routes are between 3 and 5 km and mostly follow natural paths.
• Nature by the water: a little further on lie the nature reserves of the Grevelingen.
• Birdwatching: many of the viewpoints are bird hides on Lake Grevelingen.
• Beach and bike: combine a walk with the wide beach or explore the cycle routes around Rockanje.
