This river basin of the Oude Rijn (Old Rhine) consists from a number of ponds, reed land, thickets, a piece of the Old Rhine and mud flats. The Jezuïtenwaai is very popular among birdwatchers because there are many different birds to see. A small part of the Jezuïtenwaai is accessible.
Nice birds you can see here are žličarka, bela štorklja, črna čigra, mala bela caplja and bobnarica. But als many waders like kozica zelenonogi martinec, močvirski martinec, črnorepi kljunač togotnik, sabljarka and komatni deževnik. In spring also many songbirds like brkata sinica, modra taščica, and mlinarček. In winter many ducks like dolgorepa raca and geese an also a chance on rdečevrata gos.
From the dike you have a good overview, but you can also enter the area and get close to the water and mud flats (only exposed with low water).
Parking is possible at the bottom of the dike. At 300 meters is a fence through which you can enter the area. Walking / cycling along the dike you can see a large part of the area and also get close to large parts of the water.
