Glide by e-bike through the Ooijpolder, a lush UNESCO-listed floodplain nature reserve directly across the Waalbrug bridge — wild horses, migrating birds, and vast river panoramas await.
What to expect
Cross the dramatic Waalbrug bridge on two wheels, then drop into the tranquil Ooijpolder — a mosaic of wetlands, orchards, and meadows grazed by free-roaming horses and cattle. Your guide knows the seasonal highlights: nesting storks in spring, golden floodplains in autumn. The route follows the Waal's southern bank back toward Nijmegen, offering the city's skyline rising above the river. Pack a camera — the light here is painterly.
Good to know
E-bikes are available locally; arrange a private guide through Guided Tour Holland or a comparable local specialist. This excursion is weather-dependent — check the forecast. Allow 3–4 hours for a meaningful experience. The Waalbrug start point is walkable from most moorings.
