Guided walk: "Oude Getrouwen vs. Newcomers: Botanische Strijd in the Vloeiweiden"

Step into the wonderful world of the Vloeiweiden , where the landscape is constantly in motion. In this unique place in Natuurgebied De Watering, history and the future meet on the verge. During this walk, we will go in search of the ‘old faithfuls’ : the rare, lime-loving plants that have thrived here for decades thanks to the centuries-old technique of irrigation. But nature does not stand still. Due to climate change and migration, ‘newcomers’ are appearing on the scene more and more often. Are they an enrichment for our biodiversity, or do they pose a threat to the classic inhabitants of the Vloeiweiden? Our guide will take you along the irrigation ditches and tell the fascinating story of survivors, intruders, and the delicate balance of this UNESCO heritage.
