A green shell of nature and forests surrounds Lelystad. You can cycle from one forest into another! And all woods have their own character and biotope, culminating in the Nature Park, where you can spot a moose in no time.
The urban forests like Zuigerplasbos and Gelderse Hout are completely geared to recreation and nature experience close to the city. They are varied areas with lots of open spaces and cycling and walking paths. The Visvijverbos also belongs to the shell of woods around Lelystad. These routes take you through all 6 beautiful forests and the Nature Park.
