    Wonderful point to enjoy the beautiful view of the Gileppe dam. The original wall was the oldest concrete dam wall in Europe. The complex was officially opened by King Leopold II on July 28, 1878.

      Incredibly beautiful environment. Tip: drive up along the lake to the highest point in Belgium

        Very quiet, no cars around the lake... Pure bliss!
