Hoek van Holland is a magnificent nature area with forests, dunes, beach and sea, which is well suited for exploration by bicycle or on foot. Highly recommended are the nature walks alongside the characteristic landscape of Hoek van Holland, such as the Roomse Dune, the Hoekse Shrubs, the Staelduinse Forest and the Vineta Dune.

In the VVV (Tourist Agency)-store Hoek van Holland you can obtain three walking routes (in Dutch) for free.

‘Lekker stappen in Hoek van Holland’ is a 15-kilometre trip which takes you to the green areas in and around Hoek van Holland. Both forest and beach are highlighted. The 8-kilometre ‘Kunstroute’ will take you to art and cultural heritage in the outskirts of Hoek van Holland; while the 7-kilometre ‘Ommetje Hoek’ van Holland provides insight into the seaside town’s history.
