Teahouse and nature campsite Fort Werk aan de Korte Uitweg
About this hidden gem
Near the river Lek, on the island of Schalkwijk, lies Fort Werk aan de Korte Uitweg. There, where the kingfisher skims over the water, you can hear the grass rustle, you will find a teahouse and a nature campsite.
Why you really want to visit this place
The fort dating from 1879 is a small paradise in the middle of nature. End your walking or cycling tour with a piece of freshly baked cake on the terrace of the teahouse. Or hire a canoe and make a nice trip through the polder and to other forts. In addition, enjoy the peace and freedom of your own spot on the nature campsite.
This is how they (and you) make a difference
- cultural and natural heritage
- volunteers and people distanced from the labour market work here
- nature campsite without cars
