Bird wealth of Texel

Wadden Bird Festival

Birds are everywhere on Texel: there are many different species, often rare ones. Discover Texel’s wealth of birds at the Wadden Bird Festival. Texel has 400 different species of birds so it has more birds than anywhere else in the Netherlands. The nutrient-rich mudflats are great stopovers for migrating birds. The event offers visitors lots to do. Join us on an excursion or follow an interesting lecture.
