Next to the De Enkele Wiericke canal, this eight-metre-high lookout tower, the Wierickewachter, has stood since 2018. What immediately stands out is the triangular design. Both the steel construction and the viewing platform have the shape of a triangle, just like the three poplars next to the tower. This makes it fit together well.

On the Wierickepad there is a lookout built from the top platform, you can observe the birds of prey that fly there very well. A spot has also been created where you can find your sandwich surrounded by just bird sounds useful. There are also three trees with a few known on top.
