Landscape artwork in the middle of the mudflats of the Wadden Sea. A nice place to observe wading birds up close.
De Streken is a landscape artwork on the edge of the Wadden Sea on the island of Terschelling. It is a tribute to Joop Mulder, the founder of theater festival Oerol. The work is built close to the dike at the village of Oosterend, and a special place to view wading birds up close. A small pier takes you to the artwork that is completely surrounded by the mudflats of the Wadden Sea. The monument can be visited annually from the summer to the end of September. Birds that you can see around De Streken are Галагаз євразійський, Казарка чорна and waders like Коловодник звичайний, Кулик-сорока, Кульон великий, Побережник чорногрудий and Грицик малий.

Het werk is opgebouwd aan de dijk bij Oosterend, en een bijzondere plek om wadvogels van dichtbij te bekijken. Een kleine pier voert je naar het kunstwerk dat midden op het wad staat. Het monument wordt jaarlijks opgebouwd in de zomer en in de herfst weer afgebroken en is van de zomer tot eind september te bezoeken. Vogels die je rondom De Streken kunt zien zijn Галагаз євразійський, Казарка чорна en veel steltlopers zoals Коловодник звичайний, Кулик-сорока, Кульон великий, Побережник чорногрудий en Грицик малий.
Easily accessible from Oosterend and the cycle path along the Waddendijk. Especially interesting at high tide or beginning low tide when the birds are close by. See the link to the tide table below.

Nederlands: Gemakkelijk bereikbaar vanuit Oosterend en het fietspad langs de Waddendijk. Vooral interessant net voor en na hoogwater als het wad op deze plek net begint droog te vallen of vlak voordat het helemaal onder water staat en de vogels het meest dichtbij zitten. Zie de link naar de actuele getijdentabel hieronder.
Hotel – Restaurant de Walvisvaarder has been combining informality with hospitality for more than 50 years. Perfectly centrally located for bird watching on the beautiful island of Terschelling. Close to mudflats, beach, forest and polder. In the hotel, freedom and casualness are combined with hospitality, which brings people back to Terschelling every year. The converted farm in the little village of Lies is an ideal base from which to explore the island. After a day of bird watching or a long walk on the beach, you can enjoy a drink at our bar or on our terrace. When it is a bit colder outside, the fireplace burns in the evening. Cosy, enjoy, a second home….
