Bench with a view over the Roegwold

Several narrow connecting concrete bikepaths through a generally quiet landscape. The lakes provide a fine backdrop.

Nice place to go 1/2 hour before sunset! Lots of birds to spot, geese, but also a crane seen. Exciting boardwalk with one-way traffic.

Pure and rugged nature! 🌱

Nice one-way boardwalk in 't Roegwold. Unfortunately, when I was back on the mainland, I saw a stubborn couple along the way, who walked the boardwalk against the direction of walking. The boardwalk is quite narrow. Halfway along the path is a small island with a bench.

The trail is currently closed due to bird flu.

On the west side of the Schildmeer lies Tetjehorn, an area that was already known centuries ago. According to stories, there was once a stronghold here where a robber knight lived. After his death, his wife, Taitjemui, took over the plundering. She was known as ruthless and terrorized the lake for years. It is said that her ghost still wanders around in bad weather. Since 2000, Tetjehorn has been part of the nature reserve 't Roegwold. It is now the largest reed marsh in Groningen, rich in birds such as the bittern, bearded tit, porcelain chicken and even the sea eagle.
