In the winter of 1995, Maas and Waal became even more famous when the dikes threatened to break. Tens of thousands of people had to be evacuated, but fortunately the dikes held up. However, plans were made to improve the dikes. Today, those plans have been realized; between Dreumel and Weurt there is now a dike of a dike. We doubt whether motorcycling has been thought of, but there is no doubt that it is pleasant to ride a motorcycle.
The water-rich Land van Maas en Waal stretches from the Sint-Andriessluis near Heerewaarden to the Maas-Waal canal near Nijmegen. At the ends are two large nature development areas: Fort Sint-Andries and De Gelderse Poort. Water is always prominent. In previous centuries, this part of the Rivierenland, which also consists of the Betuwe and Bommelerwaard, was frequently plagued by dike breaches and floods. Especially in this Land of Maas and Waal there are still many traces of the heroic fight against the water.
