Walking through the nature of Groede

A wonderful walk around the Zeeland-Flemish Groede. Enjoy the sea, the beautiful and extensive dune area and the hiking trails. The beach of Groede is beautiful in all seasons, so enjoy it!

Walking through Groede
This short walk of over 6 kilometers starts at Strandpaviljoen Puur in Groede. From here you walk along the Zeeweg through the green surroundings and over the dunes towards the west. Groede, like many places in West Zeeuws-Vlaanderen, is scarred by floods. The residents of Groede are also called porridge eaters, because of the Groese porridge pie. A delicacy - cake filled with yellow cream - that used to be offered by landowners to farmers when they came to pay their rent. Groede is a picturesque village with a number of historic houses. These are mainly located around the Markt, where the Grote Kerk is also located.

Zwarte Gatsche Creek
After walking along the Zeedijk for a while, you change direction and walk along the Zwarte Gatsche Kreek. This is a creek inside the dike that ends at the Groedse Duintjes. There is a nature reserve along the right bank of this creek and you can walk straight through it. What peace surrounds you! You walk north along the Zwarte Gat and along the Zeeweg you walk back to the starting point of this route - which is also the end point: Beach Pavilion Puur.

Relax at Puur
After this walk it is of course wonderful to settle down at Beach Pavilion Puur in Groede Bad. This is an excellent place for a snack or drink or for a dinner with a sea view. What else do you want?
