De Zandmeren

De Zandmeren is a recreation area centered on three interconnected lakes near Kerkdriel, in the Bommelerwaard floodplains along the Maas.

The lakes were formed through sand and gravel extraction and remain openly connected to the river, resulting in high biodiversity.

The surrounding landscape mixes grassland, wetland, scattered trees, and riverine habitat, with the Maas forming a natural boundary. The area draws hikers, cyclists, anglers, boaters, and divers.

Perch, zander, pike, and catfish are commonly caught, and the open connection to the Maas supports a wide range of aquatic life. A circular trail loops through the varied terrain, and the site is accessible by car or bicycle with parking available.
