Viewing Tower on the Vuurboetsduin - Observation point

A short climb takes you to a viewing tower that offers a breathtaking panorama over Vlieland.

Why visit the viewing tower?

Hidden gem in the forest: The tower is tucked away in the greenery, close to the water facility of Vitens, making it a surprising discovery during a walk or bike ride.
Safe climb: The steel spiral staircase leads you up to a platform that isn’t very high, but thanks to its position on the dune it provides a stunning panorama. From the top you can see dunes, forests, the village of Oost-Vlieland and the sea. On a clear day, you can even see all the way to Texel and the surrounding islands.
Perfect spot for sunset: Especially in the evening, when the sun sets behind the horizon, the view is spectacular and highly photogenic.
Easy to combine: The viewing tower is close to the lighthouse and is therefore an ideal extra stop during your trip around the island.

Easy to reach: From the Postweg, follow the shell path at the Kolk up towards the lighthouse, turn left at the water facility and take the forest path. A small staircase up and you will arrive at the tower.
Accessibility: Open all year round, free of charge.
Tip: Bring your camera for unforgettable photos, especially on clear days or during sunset.

A short climb, a great reward – the viewing tower on the Vuurboetsduin is a must-see during your visit to Vlieland!
