In the past, the Scheldt was a meandering river that overflowed its banks every winter, causing the surrounding area to be largely flooded. It was then a sought-after spot for many plants and animals. Every winter and spring, a large part is still flooded. The Kaaimeersen are the wintering and breeding ground for several typical, but often also rare meadow birds and waders. In short, a nice spot for a walk in the middle of nature!
