Naked Hike in Holland
July 17, 2010Author: rolie
I write this contribution, while I’m inspired by web sites like www.ohnaturist.com and www.naktiv.net . Since my teens I’ve been visiting the lovely nude beaches on the Dutch North Sea coast and along the shores of the lakes in the area I live in. Over 25 years I’ve been going to these places just so I can be naked and get a sun tan.
Over the last two years I’ve had the drive to live my life more and more naked, so I started in my own home and have also started taking holidays naked. Luckily my lovely boyfriend likes naturism, but in a more modest way. But he gives me the space. But as I told you, I was inspired to participate in more nude activities. Recently I visited one of my favourite nude beaches on the coast, Callantsoog (which is the Netherlands’ first official nude beach (1973)). I started walking and I never realized that the biggest part of the beach was occupied by naked people. This was actually the entire beach between two villages.
Because I signed up for the NEWT 2010, the Naked European Walking Tour (www.naktiv.net), in Austria, I wanted to do some exercise. The best way would be when nude.

So, I decided to do so and with full equipment I went to the coast and left my clothes in the car. Just with a pareo around my waist I walked to the beach. Although I´m not shy at all, I walked a few hundred metres in the pareo and finally took it off. It was my first time being naked on my own in a non-nude and public area. It was early in the morning, so the beach was virtually deserted. From there I walked 11 km totally nude along the beach and the few people who saw me either didn’t react or looked just a little jealous.
The experience was great. The sea, the sand, the seagulls, the dunes and of course the wind on your naked body….. Need I say more?
With this experience in mind I have thought of walking along the coast in the province where I live in North Holland. I realized that this beach, which is a 50 km (30 miles) long sandy beach, provides one with the opportunity to walk the biggest part nude. Only in the bigger and busier villages you have to wrap a pareo around your waist or wear some trousers for a few hundred metres, but I think it won’t be more than 10% of the walk.

My plan now is to do this 50 km nude hike, on my own or with others who like the idea. The entire walk will not be done in one day, but broken up. If you would like to join in, please contact me. Probably we can make an appointment.
Even in the overcrowded country of the Netherlands, you find places, where you can be at one with nature in the way Mother Nature intended.

Met een mengeling van jalouzie en bewondering heb ik dit verhaal gelezen. Fantastisch om dit te doen. Ik zou graag meelopen, maar ben die weken op Terschelling, waar je ook uitstekend bloot vooruit kunt.

Enjoyed reading about your walk there in Netherlands. I am yet to look up where you actually did the walk, and where you are going to do the long walk. I was in Netherlands in 2002 and went to the northern areas of the country, but didn’t get the opportunity to visit any of the west coast beaches. I had been told there were many places where it was possible to go nude on these beaches, and most people are not worried by the nudity. Thanks for the account of your walk, hopefully I might be able to contribute with some notes on walks I do here in Australia in the near future. So far a very good site, Regards Les
