Waalkade Promenade

Highlight • Trail

The Waalkade is a cycling, walking and bus promenade on the Waal. It is always lively here in the summer months. Restaurants, bars, warehouses and historic buildings alternate. There is a lot of history in this place, such as the beautiful Besiendershuis, parts of the Roman wall under the casino and of course the Valkenhof.

At the end of the quay, at the Lindeberghaven, you will see the Kaaij: a collection of bars on the quay and on the boats, where you can enjoy a nice snack and drink in a festival atmosphere.

Nice bicycle connection. You can be for or against it, in any case the construction of the bicycle path has gone through the historic building.
