Description
You can relax in the Weerribben-Wieden National Park. The only sound you hear here is the rustling of the wind through the reeds and the birdsong. Add to that a beautiful landscape full of water, reeds and marshland and you have a beautiful hike for nature lovers.
Peat extraction in the Weerribben
A large part of this route takes you through the beautiful landscape of the Weerribben. This area was created by peat extraction that took place there for many centuries. Special strips of land were released to allow the peat to dry. These so-called 'ribs' can still be seen in the landscape. After about 15 kilometers you cycle past the polder mill De Reiger and shortly afterwards you cycle past the polder mill De Rietvink.
Restaurant Ant Waeter
This bike tour ends at Restaurant Ant Waeter. Take a seat on the terrace at the water's edge and enjoy a tasty snack and a drink. Whether you want a cup of coffee with homemade apple pie, a small snack or an extensive meal, it's all possible here. It is also possible to spend the night here in the associated B&B or at the mini-campsite. Sleep in and explore hiking route 352492 the next day, rested and well-rested.
Flute concert in the Weerribben
Reeds and cattails are the vegetation that you often encounter at the edge of the water in this area. You can also admire crabs, water lilies, yellow water lily and water hemlock in the water itself. Furthermore, this area is very popular with birds such as the purple heron, the black tern and the sedge warbler. In the spring it is often bustling with the chirping of all the birds that live here.
