    De Slufter on the Maasvlakte site is a large storage facility for (contaminated) harbor sludge. You can ride all the way around by bike. Halfway there is a steep climb, from the top you have a beautiful view of the Rotterdam harbor and the Maasvlakte beach.

      It is a natural phenomenon that slow-moving rivers silt up. In order to keep the port basins, waterways and rivers adjacent to the port of Rotterdam navigable, constant dredging is necessary. However, the silt is often contaminated and cannot therefore be dumped at sea or spread on the land.



      The Slufter is a 250-hectare depot for contaminated dredged material in the southwest section of the Maasvlakte. The depot has been in use since 1987 to store this dredged material from port basins and the fairway.
