A beautiful natural area for cycling and walking. The usual cycle path runs along the Rotterdamseweg, but cycling through this natural area is much more enjoyable.

Dead end, but there are two benches at the front of the old bridgehead with a nice view of the passing ships.

Nice boat watching. And a nice bike path along the river with its tides.
