The Nedereindse Plas between IJsselstein and Nieuwegein was created by sand extraction for the construction of the A2 motorway. For a while the area was used for dumping legal but also illegal waste. Fortunately, this came to an end in 1992. There are many hiking and biking trails around the lake and there are several places to fish. The lake is inhabited by many birds which can be seen from the bird-watching wall. Near the lake is a ski hill and cycling track. During this bike route you will also cycle past beautiful forts and places with great views. And while we're on the subject of cycling: get out and about!
