A hike along the Este dike is highly recommended: a beautiful circular walk. Spring or autumn are best. In the height of summer, there's no shade. You'll be treated to various views of the surrounding nature, the Este River, and the thatched-roof houses. There are plenty of benches for taking a short break. The lock house is also very interesting and worth a visit 👍🏼.

A hike along the Este River is beautiful anywhere. But here, where you can walk directly on the Este dike, it's even more beautiful because you can see the Este River again and again.
