Path Around the Moat of Nieuwpoort

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful path around the moat of this small fortified town. Wear good shoes (or even boots) if it has rained for a few days. Beautiful views over the Lek and lots of birds.

Monnink Turret on the Lekdijk

Highlight • Monument

These are still very striking appearances. They are intended to ensure that you cannot cross such a dam.

Nieuwpoort City Walls

Highlight • Historical Site

A large part of the walk is on the ramparts of the Fortress. Very worthwhile. Everything is in a well-maintained state.

Cannon on the Ramparts of Nieuwpoort

Highlight • Historical Site

Although Nieuwpoort was a relatively small fortress, it is actually accessible to visit. It really has everything that belongs to a fortress, including the inevitable cannons.
