Description
The city park "Steinse Groen" is a fairly new park on the eastern side of Gouda. The park mainly consists of high bushes and forested areas with small marshlands, ponds and ditches. In spring, the area is home to a variety of common songbirds, like Pouillot véloce, Fauvette à tête noire and Fauvette grisette, but also breeding birds like Fauvette babillarde and Hypolaïs ictérine are present. The small ponds and ditches are used by common species of waterfowl, like Canard chipeau, Fuligule morillon and Foulque macroule, but species like Martin-pêcheur d'Europe, Fuligule milouin and Sarcelle d'hiver are also present. In summer, Sterne pierregarin forages above these ditches and sometimes small groups of Guifette noire fly overhead. Small reedbeds are present in the northwestern en southeastern part of the park. Here, small numbers of Phragmite des joncs and Rousserolle effarvatte breed, but also Bouscarle de Cetti can be found. The shallow parts of the area are home to grass snake and some parts also contain orchids. In winter, the area is mainly used by flocks of Tarin des aulnes and Pinson des arbres.
Large extensive pastures are located on the northern side of the park. In summer, small numbers of Barge à queue noire and Alouette des champs breed here. In winter, large flocks of Oie rieuse, Bernache nonnette and Cygne tuberculé forage on these pastures. The ditches between these pastures are used by large numbers of Canard siffleur and many other species of waterfowl. Also, large groups of Grande Aigrette can be found here.

The area is easy accessable on foot and by bike. You can park the car at several places near the park (see P on the map). Just follow the paved roads into the park and you can make a circular walk of about 2.5 km. There is a small "trekpontje" located in the northern part of the area, which means a small DIY ferry to cross a ditch. There's also an information sign in the eastern part of the park, explaining the nature on the extensive pastures to the east.
