Hiking

The Veerpoort in Schoonhoven is a historic city gate dating from 1601, built as part of the city's defenses and flood defenses. It is the only remaining gate and features a distinctive Dutch Renaissance style. Today, the gate serves as a gallery and tourist attraction, offering views of the Lek River and a cozy brasserie nearby.
