Clear your head with a long walk along the beach, search for mushrooms in the forest, warm up by the fireplace and spot rare birds during the bird migration. On Texel you get the best out of autumn!
During Family Festival Texel in the first weekend of October, the sky will be filled with all sorts of kites, some plain and simple and others intricate and beautiful. There will also be spectacular surfing and kite-surfing demonstrations on the beach.
On the last Saturday of October, a light tour is organised in Den Burg. The walk with lanterns and lights through the old centre of Den Burg is accompanied by a brass band. A special experience!
Autumn’s golden combination: raw blues music and stormy Texel bock beer. Enjoy both at TexelBlues, the first weekend of October.
Of all the migrating birds that pass through in the Netherlands, most stop off at Texel, including some very rare species. Go on your own or book a birding excursion. View our agenda for current excursions.
During National Museum Week in October, you can use someone else's museum card to explore the museums on Texel for free. You are most welcome!
Feeling the cold and the wet? Woolness is Texel’s answer to wellness: they’ll wrap you up in sheep’s wool. It’s soothing and warm for both body and soul.
Autumn is the perfect time for long walks on the beach. Many of the beach cafés are open all through the autumn and winter. Warm your toes around the fireplace while you sip hot chocolate or a Juttertje.
