Slags embedded in dunes at the coast.
De Slufter is a beach plain largely enclosed by dunes on the Dutch Wadden island of Texel, which is in open connection with the North Sea, creating a salt marsh landscape.
De Slufter is part of the Dunes of Texel National Park. The area is owned by Staatsbosbeheer. It has an area of over 700 hectares (land and water). In the southeast corner is a viewpoint and an entrance. You can "roam" in the southern part of the area. This section is probably the most walked on salt marsh in Europe. More to the north and west is a large rest area.
Strictly speaking, “de slufter” is the name of the creek/creeks that flowed through the area. The "Vlakte van de Slufter" - also known as the Slufter valley or the Slufter area - is nowadays usually referred to simply as "De Slufter".
Nowadays, people also speak of slufters and slufter formation in other places - e.g. on other Dutch Wadden Islands - to indicate beach plains constricted by the dunes, where the influence of ebb and flow is present. These terms are toponyms; they are derived from De Slufter on Texel.
