Nederland - Petten/Camperduin, Hondsbossche Duinen

Nederland - Petten/Camperduin, Hondsbossche Duinen
In the Middle Ages were dunes on the spot of the Hondsbossche and Pettemer Zeewering. Large storms such as the All Saints' Flood in 1570 swept away these dunes and the North Sea was only stopped by dikes. The impressive sea dike, protecting the villages of Petten and Camperduin, was designated in 2002 as one of the eight weak points of the Dutch coast.

It was decided not to further raise the existing dike, but to opt for a solution with 'sand':Kust op Kracht (Coast on Strength). March 2014 the project started to create a beach and dune area on the seaside of the dike, stretching over eight kilometers between Petten and Camperduin and 300 meters wide. Approximately 35 million cubic meters of sand was used for this new piece of land of about 400 soccer fields. The newly created dune area was given the name Hondsbossche Duinen.

This approach resulted in a new recreation area and artificial dune landscape with a wide beach, cycling and walking paths, but also a new area for birds with a wet dune valley lake. Near Petten is a panorama dune (26 meters high) - www.ipernity.com/doc/294067/48526386 - where one has a beautiful view over this new part of the Netherlands.

Such a great project and a clever solution to the constant threat of flooding so that both man and nature benefit.

The dunes look beautiful in the sunshine.............and I love your composition here Jaap. The wooden structure sits perfectly in the frame. Two more super images in the PiPs and I especially like the way you've framed the view in the second PiP.

Excellent work my friend. HFF to you and I hope you have a smashing weekend.
