This parking lot is located along the walking route of nature reserve Platwijers, but can also serve as a starting point for the longer walking route including nature reserve Wijvenheide. There is a table with benches and a garbage bin. Approximately 60 meters from the parking lot is an information board of De Wijers, the water-rich region to which both nature reserves belong.
