WIJHESEVEER

The Wijhese ferry sails between Wijhe and Heerde over the IJssel. On the spot, the river IJssel is the divide between the province of Overijssel on the Wijhese bank and the province of Gelderland on the Heerdese bank. The origin of the Wijhese ferry goes back to the year 1379.
The current cable ferry was put into operation in 1990. A cable ferry is a ferry that maintains a connection between two banks along a steel wire stretched over the water. The cable aims to prevent the ferry from drifting.
The Wijhese veer is a 'back and forth'. This is a ferry that maintains a connection between two places opposite each other on a waterway. In particular, a ferry where 'front' and 'back' are the same and where traffic therefore enters on one side and drives off on the other.
