The famous Graaf-Jansdijk once cut through the landscape here, offering protection against storm surges. For years, the area served as arable land, until Natuurpunt converted it into grassland. A flower-rich hay meadow is now developing around the Vuil Poelke, alternating with a flower-rich reed land. You can see a gradual transition from moist to very wet zones. Small landscape elements receive a lot of attention here: around the Vuil Poelke, the natural value of the pollard willows increases year after year. They develop into gnarled old trees, appreciated by everyone.
Simply enjoy the historic landscape in restoration.
