Lamb cuddle farm
Around a thousand lambs are born on the sheep farm every year, some of which love to be cuddled. Reserve a time slot with your admission ticket and you can spend half an hour cuddling the cute little ones. The larger lambs also roam freely in our barn. You can hold the guinea pigs and (often chicks) on your lap. Because it is a large animal farm, dogs are not allowed in the barn or on the farmyard (only in the coffee corner).
Sheep herding demonstrations are at 11:00 and 14:00.
Open every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday.
Children under 2 years: free.
Children 2-12 years: €6.
Adults: €7.50.
More information: www.schapenboerderijtexel.nl.
Where: Pontweg 77, Den Burg.
Lighthouse Texel
The sturdy red lighthouse at the northernmost tip of the island is, for many people, the symbol of Texel. So you'll definitely want to visit it when you're on our Wadden Island. Good news: you can!
Every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday until 19 December. During the Christmas holidays, every day except 25 December and 1 January.
The lighthouse is open to the public. After climbing 118 steps, you will find yourself on the gallery, 45 metres above sea level, with a magnificent view of the North Sea, the Wadden Sea, the northern part of the island and nearby Vlieland. In the dark, the light from the Texel lighthouse can be seen all the way to Leeuwarden.
A visit to the lighthouse costs €6.00 per person. Children up to 4 years old are free.
Where: Vuurtorenweg 184, in De Cocksdorp
