Today another nice walk of about 8.4 km in the Rivierenland between Maas & Waal. Recommended!

A walk through the Hurwenense Uiterwaarden. Although the route is largely on paved paths and roads, it is still very worthwhile. Parking is possible on the Maasdijk at Brasserie De Roskam in Hurwenen (GPS: 51.815347,5.324087). Recommended!

The idea was to walk through the Kil, but the water was already higher than expected. Then just slide and slide around it. Up to our knees covered in mud 😁
