Hiking

The trout pond is one of the water features of the old park. It is a long and narrow pond that dates from 1900. Under King William I, the pond was provided with small bridges and houses around it. The pond used to serve as a breeding pond for trout for the palace kitchen. Now it is just a beautiful stretch of water, surrounded by beautiful buildings and flowering plants.

Hiking

Next to the trout pond you will find this mysterious little house. When you peek inside, there doesn't seem to be much inside. Yet it has been widely used in the past. In this house the palace staff collected tipsy game. The dead animals were then put through the meat grinder. Together with some flour they were then fed to the trout. The trout from the pond were served in the palace. For example, the royal family had fresh trout available when there were guests.
