Drouwenerzand nature reserve

Camping Het Horstmannsbos borders directly on the Drouwenerzand nature reserve. This area of woodland, heath and sand drifts is managed by the Drentse Landschap. Juniper bushes are characteristic of the area. Together with the sand blue, grass bell, wild thyme and prickly broom, these plants are very striking. Juniper, wild thyme and prickly pear are on the Dutch Red List of threatened plant species. There is also a lot to discover in the animal world here. Various protected animals live here.

It is part of a larger area of sand ridges and river valleys in Drenthe and Groningen, also known as the Hondsrug system. The Hondsrug, together with part of the surrounding area, forms the only geopark in the Netherlands.

The area consists of coniferous and deciduous forests, lakes, meadows, villages, streams, shifting sands, heaths and fields. In this area, five nature areas have been designated as Natura 2000 sites: (Zuidlaardermeer, Drentsche Aa, Bargerveen, Drouwenerzand and Elperstroom).
