The Dikke Molen (Fat Mill) was built in 1674, making it over 350 years old! It's a so-called ground-sailer; its sails graze the ground. Previously, the mill drained the Zuid- and Noordeinderpolder. Today, the mill is privately owned and can be visited by appointment.

This striking bridge over the Amstel River, the Vrouwenakker Bridge, was built in 2008. Its shape is quite remarkable; the top of the bridge suspiciously resembles the limbs of a praying mantis. The bridge connects the village of De Kwakel with the hamlet of Vrouwenakker.

The ferry on this path has been removed and does not seem to be coming back. As a result, the route is no longer walkable. You can't go any further halfway, and then the only option is to turn around.
