Small city park on the eastern side of Gouda with small forested areas, marshlands and ponds.
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 gransångare, svarthätta and törnsångare, but also breeding birds like ärtsångare and härmsångare are present. The small ponds and ditches are used by common species of waterfowl, like snatterand, vigg and sothöna, but species like kungsfiskare, brunand and Kricka are also present. In summer, fisktärna forages above these ditches and sometimes small groups of svarttärna fly overhead. Small reedbeds are present in the northwestern en southeastern part of the park. Here, small numbers of sävsångare and rörsångare breed, but also cettisångare 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 grönsiska and bofink.
Large extensive pastures are located on the northern side of the park. In summer, small numbers of rödspov and sånglärka breed here. In winter, large flocks of bläsgås, vitkindad gås and knölsvan forage on these pastures. The ditches between these pastures are used by large numbers of bläsand and many other species of waterfowl. Also, large groups of ägretthäger 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.
