Tips

August 23, 2020

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.

The Nete is a river in Belgium in the Scheldt basin.
Lier is located at the confluence of the Grote Nete and the Kleine Nete. As Felix Timmermans puts it: "where the three winding Nethes tie a silver knot". Downstream from Lier, the river is simply called Nete or also Benedennete. It merges with the Dijle at Rumst and thus forms the Rupel, which eventually flows into the Zeeschelde. Tidal action is noticeable on the Kleine Nete up to Grobbendonk.
In the Benedennete, the section from Lier to Rumst (15 km), the Nete Canal starts, which connects the Rupel to the Albert Canal.

The Nete is navigable up to 600 tons and from Duffel up to 1350 tons.
