Solleveld, Nature reserve in Westland, Netherlands

The Solleveld dunes contain expansive heathland patches, grasslands, wetlands, and dense forests that extend from The Hague to Ter Heijde along the coastline.

Water extraction operations that began in 1887 transformed Solleveld from agricultural land into a dry terrain, leading to substantial changes in local ecosystems.

The name Solleveld originates from Zolle Velt, referencing water-filled depressions that were once present in this agricultural region during the 19th century.

Access to Solleveld requires a day ticket purchased online, with entry point located at Monsterseweg 2 in Den Haag for controlled visitor management.

Oak trees grow unusually close to the sea in Solleveld, creating a distinct environment not found elsewhere along the Dutch coast.
