    The Zwarte Schaar is a beautiful meander of the IJssel. In 1954, this 6 kilometer long bend was partly cut off from the IJssel. The result is a nature reserve full of small islands, some small beaches, many birds and recreationists on boats.

    Here the cycle path leads along the backwater of the IJssel with sometimes beautiful views of the wetland with often many birds.

    A really beautiful section of the IJssel.
    The small islands, a few small beaches and many animals and boats are in the water there.
    You can even see cows climbing into the cool water to cool off.
