Together we celebrate 20 years

In 2026, National Park De Alde Feanen will be exactly 20 years old – and we are celebrating together! For two decades, De Alde Feanen has been a unique nature reserve where peat pits, reed beds, rough grasslands, thickets and swamp forests come together.
It is a place where you can walk, cycle and sail through space and tranquillity, and where nature tells its own story. In 2026, we will reflect on that story and look ahead. Celebrate De Alde Feanen is all about our anniversary. Curious how we are celebrating?
