Along the former peat extraction area

A narrow walking dike that you share with cyclists. Beautiful view of the former peat extraction area that is now under water.

When you think of nature in Lokeren, you often think of the Groot Molsbroek. It is a fairly large nature reserve (122 hectares) by Flemish standards, with optimal accessibility. The walking dike offers a beautiful view of the diverse nature: an extensive marshland with numerous water birds, alder swamps, river dunes, reed fields and wet grasslands. On the walking dike you will find 8 information boards, 3 free to use fixed binoculars, a 24/7 information point, a viewing box with stereo slides, an insect garden with a barefoot path and in the winter a viewing wall at the winter feeding place.

Narrow promenade along water features. There used to be a peat extraction area here. Now this piece of nature reserve at times resembles 'mangrove forests'.
It is also a bird paradise here, both for the spotter and our forged friends.
