Hiking
The ferry between Schoonhoven and Gelkenes is a vital connection across the Lek River, dating back to 1429. Two modern ferries, the Stad Schoonhoven and the Zilverstad, operate regularly for pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles. The ferry operates frequently and is essential for traffic between Krimpenerwaard and Alblasserwaard.
