Dwingelderveld N.P.

April 27 is a national holiday in the Netherlands as we celebrate the birthday of our King Willem Alexander, who turned 48 years old today (which makes him exactly 10 days younger than me :) !). Because of the beautiful weather we decided to spend this year's King's Day in the Dwingelderveld National Park and walk one of the trails there.

The N.P. is located in the province of Drenthe and was founded in 1991. It covers about 37 km² (14 sq miles), and is the largest wet heathland of Western-Europe.

    The birthday of King is good day to go walking - and it looks so sunny day, too.
    Gongratulations to your King.

    It looks like a peaceful area. A number of Dutch photobloggers are mentioning today.

    Nog gefeliciteerd met je verjaardag. Een mooie dag voor een wandeling inderdaad, ben wel eens in de omgeving van Dwingeloo geweest, het is daar prachtig.
