Walsum Rhine Meadows Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

Especially in good weather and just before sunset (but also otherwise) highly recommended! Under certain circumstances, depending on the direction of travel, the headwind should not be underestimated when you are on the top of the dike.

Beautiful section through the NSG Bislicher Insel. Large meadows (flood protection area) are filled with more or less water (depending on the season and the water level of the Rhine) and thousands of different bird species.
