The Delta Works created a new lake: the Markiezaatmeer. The tour leads, among other things, to a bird hide, farm Hildernisse (which used to be outside the dikes), and …

Car parked on spacious P. A little further than the exit to no. 21. Little forest, lots of meadow. The part where the cows and horses run loose I stopped after about 200 meters because on every path there was a part of a herd. Nice to see.
