Beautiful bench with carved fish. This is not the only bench, in this beautiful nature reserve, with carvings. Fantastic place for a break during a walk or bike ride, because with very nice view.

As in many other places, the Niers, which was straightened decades ago, was “renatured”. Now it can meander through the landscape again in a few curves. A nice place to linger - the appropriate break benches are available.

Niers River Restoration

Highlight • River

The course of the river was changed meandering. This creates an alluvial landscape with a diverse flora and fauna. It is worth taking a break to observe the newly developed river landscape.
