그레벨링겐미어‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 호수

물 위로 멋진 전망을 감상할 수 있는 제방 위의 환상적인 자갈길입니다. 로드 자전거로도 타기 좋습니다.

It’s very narrow and very windy up there, and it gets difficult when there is oncoming traffic

Very nice trail… You can also ride it with a normal bike, you don't necessarily need a mountain bike… We'll be back, that's for sure 😉

Great view… Ideal for chilling and relaxing… We'll be back no question 😉

Flamingos!😉

Mega cycle path over the dike at Grewelingenmeer

In 1971, the Grevelingenmeer with a surface area of 14,000 hectares was created by damming. In the past, the Grevelingen was mainly important for oyster and mussel farming. Now this salty lake is an attractive area for water sports. In addition, nature receives a lot of attention. For the benefit of pleasure craft, the Mosselbank has been located on the plate directly in front of the water sports island since 1990. On the other side is Herkingen on the former island of Goeree-Overflakkee. In your field of vision on the right you can see the Grevelingendam. It is one of the most important connections between Schouwen-Duiveland and the mainland. As part of the Delta Plan, this dam was built between Bruinisse and Goeree-Overflakkee in 1961-1965. The northern channel, the Bocht van Sint Jacob, was closed off by dumping a dam of stones using a cable car. On 1 April 1965, the Grevelingendam was opened to traffic.

The Grevelingenmeer is the largest saltwater lake in Europe. It is closed off from tidal water by the Grevelingendam in the east and the Brouwersdam in the west and is therefore considered to be rather stagnant and often oxygen-free water where little underwater life can be expected. That the latter does not apply to all parts of the Grevelingenmeer is evident at Battenoord, where a large group of flamingos has been standing or coming to spend the winter for several years (2022). Some are deep pink, which means that they eat a lot of shrimp and indicates a rich underwater life. At Battenoord you can spot the flamingos near the harbor or at the mills and in recent years (since 2022) you can even spot three species of flamingos there: the European flamingo, Chilean flamingo and the Caribbean flamingo.
