Walking around the Krimpenerwaard

You can take a walking tour through the Krimpenerwaard around Lekkerkerk. You will see beautiful old farms, and you will also pass the small-scale Bakkerswaal nature reserve with its duck decoy. Nearby you can take a break at Theetuin and B&B Onder De Pannen. You are right on the Lek! Further on you walk through the Krimpenerhout. Woods, water and meadows alternate in this relatively young recreational area. It is also nice to walk along the river De Loet, while looking out over reed beds and the rippling water. Many birds live along the water, and you can also spot special plants. After a while, the vast landscape gives way to the Loetbos. Native trees such as willows, alders and poplars grow here: species that feel at home in this low moor area.
