Nice way to get to the other bank without getting your feet wet. Our neighbors on the other side of the border are much more creative and have a lot more to offer when it comes to hiking and cycling routes

May 5, 2025,Rekken ; Oldenkott langs de Berkel ( NL - DLd -NL )
Wonderful Moment of Happiness with Basic Component; Berkel.

From Germany, the Berkel river flows into the Netherlands at Rekken. There is a nice ferry across this meandering river. During this varied trip, you will encounter this foot ferry. You cross the Berkel under your own steam while enjoying the landscape.
