Stadsblokken-Meinerswijk

Stadsblokken-Meinerswijk is a floodplain park along the Rhine River that consists of open meadows, water channels, and walking paths spread across a large area. Multiple entry points allow visitors to explore the terrain from different directions, discovering different landscapes as they move through the space.

This land has protected Arnhem from river floods for centuries by serving as a natural water storage area along the Rhine. The continuous floodplain function shaped the vegetation and animal life that visitors encounter today.

The park serves as a place where people step away from city life and move through open grassland on foot or by bicycle. The grazing animals and wild vegetation create a setting that feels removed from urban routines, allowing visitors to experience the land much as it has existed for generations.

The land is best explored on foot or by bicycle using marked routes that wind through the open areas. Wear sturdy footwear since the ground changes depending on the season and recent weather conditions.

Konik horses and Galloway cattle roam freely across the grassland, actively shaping the landscape through grazing. These animals maintain the open character of the meadows naturally, preventing shrubs and trees from encroaching.
