Texel’s smallest village

De Waal


Texel’s smallest village at the heart of the island: De Waal Travel back in time as you walk through this tiny village. The culture-historical museum exudes same feeling of yesteryear. The village is full of charming farms and old houses, so it’s worth well a visit. Waalenburg, the polder next to the village, is home to lots of birds. The shallow pools are great for skating in winter if possible.
