The route is no longer cycleable. There are many trees on the path, and the paths are closed.

The Coendersborg in Nuis was created by merging the Fossemaheerd, Harkemaplaats and Heringheplaats. The current borg was built in 1813 on the site of the former Fossemaheerd. In 1534, Hemko IJpens Harkema, sworn judge in the western part of Vredewold, became the owner of the Ooster Fossemaheerd through an exchange with Sywert Fossuma.

Via an underground passage of approximately 162 meters you reach the elevated birdwatching hut via a spiral staircase. This is the best place in the Netherlands for the red-necked grebe. You also have a chance of good photos of all kinds of water and marsh birds such as eared grebe, little grebe, garganey, common teal, gadwall, bittern, shoveler and in the autumn osprey. Below, at the entrance of the spiral staircase, there is a sunken photo hut - at water level - for three people from where you have a beautiful view of the nature reserve.

Because several species of bats hibernate in the tunnel, it is closed for four months. However, the area around Diependal can be viewed during that period. For example, you can turn right from the tunnel and after another 400 meters on foot you will come to a viewing wall that offers a view over an enormous lake that connects the Diependal with the Hijkerveld. In this lake, a hundred meters from the viewing wall, there is a large (bare) tree where sea eagles regularly rest. In the months of September and October, the osprey also regularly comes to catch fish here.
