The Leie is a river that flows in France and Belgium. It rises in the municipality of Lisbourg, in the French department of Pas-de-Calais, drains generally in a northeasterly direction and flows after a total of around 202 kilometers in the city of Ghent, in the Belgian province of East Flanders, as a left tributary into the Scheldt. The Leie flows in distinctive meanders into the city center of Ghent, where it flows into the Scheldt.

Until before corona, the old Leie arm was the swimming spot and picnic of locals, unfortunately the new visitors who flock there with picnic baskets, inflatable animals, music boxes, do not respect the fauna and beauty (not their hometown??) and leave behind dirt and empty bottles. and plastic behind, the water birds and other animals are increasingly rare to see
