Beautiful but also somewhat alienated piece after steering. Bizarre how those tree stumps stick out above the water.

Follow the Elmpad to the Quay towards Houten het Goy

It's fun to see how the trees are gradually disappearing. Now there are only a few tribes left. A few years ago there were mostly dead trees.

Wonderful wheel where you can also enjoy swimming.

The Tichelgaten, also known as “the Put of Buren,” is a unique nature reserve just outside Buren. The area offers various discoveries all year round, from resident, migratory and water birds to dragonflies, damselflies, butterflies and other insects. In addition, there are mushrooms, mosses, lichens, trees and plants to be found. The Tichelgaten were created by clay and sand extraction. The Buren map of 1890 shows the first buildings of the N.V. Waalsteenfabriek, located along the Korne, Kornedijk and Hennisdijk, where construction company Van Kessel is now located. The clay was extracted from a stream ridge along the Hennisdijk, whereby the terrain was excavated by hand to 1 meter, causing calcareous sand to come to the surface. Wet grasslands, scrub, alder forest and roughs developed in the excavated areas. The ponds were formed between 1922 and 1964 by sand suction, and the large pond, which was given the name “de Put van Buren”, was dug between 1951 and 1954. Source and more information: ivn.nl

What a beautiful piece of nature all of a sudden. With waterfowl. The Haarsteegse Wiel, also known as Grote Wiel, is one of the largest wheels in the Netherlands.

Beautiful drowned forest that you can walk through. The nature reserve behind it is also very beautiful.

As the name may suggest, this special forest did not always look like this. About 10 years ago there was still a beautiful forest along the Schalkwijksewetering on this spot. However, the drainage in the area and the Schalkwijksewetering caused some problems. When heavy rains passed by, the water had difficulty finding its way and often remained in the same place.
