The Vallei van de Puttenbeek is the Opwijk part (with reed collar De putten and 'D'Helle') of the recognized reserve “Paddebroeken” (E-346), which extends from 'Vogelenzang' at the Kravaal forest in Asse, on the border with Mazenzele, over the 'Paddebroeken' in Merchtem to 'd' Helle' and 'reed collar De Putten' in Opwijk.

The nature reserve d'Helle is not hell but a heavenly nature reserve in Merchtem, Opwijk and Asse.
The path owes its name to the swampy area along the Puttenbeek on the border of Merchtem and Opwijk, more specifically near the hamlets of Mansteen and Waaienberg.
A heavenly discovery in d'Helle.
