Beaver
From the eighteenth century, peat was dredged in the Schuitwater. This fuel was transported with flat barges, the area took its name from these vehicles. In the Schuitwater you will find many special plants, mushrooms, insects and birds. There is plenty to enjoy in every season. Beavers were also released here in 2003. With a bit of luck you can spot the animal or find traces of its behavior.
