Discover the Schoorl dunes
The area around the Fletcher Hotel Jan van Scorel is dappled with sand dunes, forests, polders and heathlands – a wealth of opportunities to enjoy wonderful hiking and cycling trails. The widest and tallest dunes in the Netherlands can be found in the Schoorlse Duinen National Park. Or you could escape to the beach. The North Sea can only be reached on foot or by bike, allowing you to fully enjoy the peace and quiet.
