Hiking
A picnic area at a historic location where steam trains on the Aalst - Lokeren - Zelzate line thundered from 1867 onwards. This bridge over the Moervaart was blown up twice by retreating armies. In 1918 by the German and in 1940 by the Belgian army. The bridge, which was restored by the occupying forces after 1940, has been preserved unchanged today. The name Spletteren refers to the old name of the surrounding fields.
At this picnic area you have a beautiful view of the picturesque Moervaart.
