The Dunes of Bakkeveen is a nature reserve of about 260 hectares, near Bakkeveen. It is a Natura 2000 area, which means that it is protected by the EU member states in terms of preserving and restoring biodiversity. You will find woods as well as heathland and grassland. Another thing you can admire there is the Poepedobbe, a circular lake that is a pingo ruin; a remnant of pushed up permafrost that formed a once spherical hill, a pingo. As the climate warmed, a crater of melted ice remained. Get off your bike to discover this special nature reserve.
