There are wonderful, super cool dikes in this region. The Maas with its many ferries is great!

Dutch Reformed Church on the dike in Rossum.
This church has a tuff tower that originally dates from the 12th century and was built in Romanesque style. In 1659, a new church was built against the tower, after its predecessor was destroyed by fire during the Eighty Years' War.

Nice and windy bald piece. You can fly with tailwind, with headwind ... wet your chest. To the right of the dike is another MTB area with obstacles,

Hoogwaterjongen Statue

Highlight • Monument

A large image, about 4 meters high, stands in the floodplains of the Waal. The image is of a little boy in his swimming trunks, holding his left hand up to indicate how high the river water of the Waal may rise before Zaltbommel gets wet feet.

Dijkgraaf H.C. de Jongh Pumping Station

Highlight • Monument

The pumping station H.C. de Jongh in Aalst provides the inlet and outlet of water for the area between the Waaldijk, Meidijk, Rijksweg Utrecht - Den Bosch, and the line across Bruchem, Kerkwijk and Aalst. The pumping station "de Baanbreker" near Wellseind takes care of the other part of the Bommelerwaard.

It was put into operation in 1936 by the dijkgraaf H.C. de Jongh, he was chief dike of the Bommelerwaard above the Meidijk from 1924-1937. The electric pumping station replaced two previous pumping stations, a steam pumping station with a Fijnje pump from 1854 and a steam pumping station with a paddle wheel from 1882, both of which were located slightly east of the current pumping station.
