The village of Valkkoog, with only a few hundred inhabitants, is situated at the foot of the Valkkoog Dike. The dike, which dates from 1248, is even older than the West Frisian Circular Dike! The winding Valkkoog Dike is a testament to the battle that the West Frisian people once fought against the sea. The embankments, breakthroughs and excavations make this dike of great historical value.
Valkkoog is situated in the shadow of the provincial town of Schagen, where you can go for all your 'town business'. Do you prefer the quiet life? The fifteenth-century church at Valkkoog regularly has classical concerts. Eyes shut and enjoy.
