after the old ferry got old, it was replaced by a new one (two months ago) as of August 2023. The new one is now a little further down and is powered by a motor.

Onnerpolder Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

West of the Drentse Diep (the canalized course of the Hunze near the Zuidlaardermeer) lies the Onnerpolder, which in turn is part of the higher and more parceled sandy soils of the Hondsrug.
