Horseback riding or a covered wagon ride

This is a great way to discover the nature of the island.

You can also take a covered wagon ride on Terschelling through the polder, over the mudflats and through the dunes. Several wagon routes have been mapped out. For more information about horseback riding or the covered wagon tours, please contact our reception.
