Long trousers and a shirt with long sleeves are nice... the Tiendpad is largely overgrown with tall nettles.

October 22, 2022,Wandeling Oudewater-Hekendorp-Oudewater

This is a green route connecting Oudewater and Hekendorp. The walk goes on the towpath along the Hollandse IJssel and back on the old Tiendweg. Good walking shoes are recommended, especially if it has been raining for a few days. In the autumn the trees are full of apples and pears and walnuts can be collected along the towpath.

So just back and with a small detour around it about 2-3 km further the same, then we had to change …

Lots of grass quay ... lots of fences .. (towards Hekendorp you can also cross the dike) but definitely worth it.

August 27, 2023,Rondje vanuit Oudewater

Found this alternate route via Komoot. Spotted horses, cows, sheep, swallows, butterflies, ducks, coots, herons, a stork and a hare. Seen a lot of polder and water. A nice round around Hekendorp follows. A beautiful towpath along the Hollandsche IJssel then leads you back to, as they say themselves: "the most beautiful town in the Green Heart". Beautiful cloudy skies …
