In the middle of the forest two beautiful ponds between the trees

Then you come from Milsbeek into that beautiful forest (or from somewhere else) and you see those beautiful ponds. Believe me: no photo can do justice to how fairytale-like beautiful this area is. But make no mistake: a lot of what you see here dates from a not so long ago time when this forest was still the domain of a manor house. Apart from a few pieces and remains (such as an ice cellar), Huize Sint-Jansberg, which was decorated with ornaments that came from a Roman villa (which you can read more about) was completely destroyed in 1944. Incidentally, Sint-Jansberg was part of Germany until 1817. And those ponds? The three ponds used to have different functions. What exactly can be read on an information board near the ice cellar and the giant sequoia. One of them already served as a swimming pond. And there are plans to accentuate the cultural-historical elements of all three. But above all, enjoy them very much because they are beautiful, just like the slopes of the forest in which they are located. Really wonderful.

💚The green lung of Nijmegen 💚. The Kronenburgerpark: 5 minutes walk from the main station🚆. Remains of a medieval city wall and the Kruittor (German: Powder Tower) - 30 meters high, built in 1426 💚Recreational area from the hustle and bustle of the city. Especially on warmer days 🌞people find wonderful peace here on blankets in the grass 💚.

Hike on the Sint Jansberg. It goes up and down quite a bit here

At Sint Jansberg. Great hiking area

Here, swampy paths have been paved with slabs especially for cyclists.

A very beautiful nature reserve where you can still cycle through.

In the middle of the park you can see the 30 meter high Kronenburgerturm, which was once a warehouse for gunpowder. The tower is also known as the “Powder Tower”. The park is also home to the St. Jacob's Molen, parts of the historic city walls and there is a cave and a waterfall. In addition, the park is hilly, which is noticeable by the height difference of 14 meters between south and north. From 1880 the park was transformed into a beautiful hiking park, where it is pleasant to stay in the sun while taking a walk or lying on a blanket.
