The confluence of the Grote Nete and the Kleine Nete. As Felix Timmermans puts it: "where the three winding Nethen tie a silver knot". Downstream from Lier the river is simply called Nete or Beneden-Nete. At Rumst, this flows together with the Dijle to form the Rupel, which eventually flows into the Scheldt. On the Kleine Nete the tides are noticeable as far as Grobbendonk and on the Grote Nete up to Itegem.
