Bomendijk (Tree Dyke)

Highlight • Structure

The entrance to a beautiful stretch of the only remaining tree dyke in the Netherlands. The dyke was used to fight back the water from the river IJssel during periods of flooding!

View of the IJssel River

Highlight • Viewpoint

A viewpoint along the IJssel near Voorst, where you can enjoy the wide river landscape and the green floodplains. At high tide this area can be flooded.

From whichever side you approach the village of Voorst, the slender spire of the Dorpskerk can always be seen.

The Dorpskerk, built years ago on the edge of the village, was and still is the center of village life.
