Park 58

Park 58 owes its name to the world expo of 1958, during which part of the dune area was transformed into a park. However, a part of the original dune area was preserved in the form of sparse, relatively calcium-rich dune grasslands and dune scrub. The flora in these sparse dune grasslands is particularly rich and contains species that have almost completely disappeared from elsewhere on the east coast. Through a management agreement with the municipal authorities, this unique area is managed by Natuurpunt section Knokke-Heist. The area is completely freely accessible, provided there is due respect for the present natural values.
