In Dessel, on the site of Sas 4, there is a unique point in Europe where the three canals Bocholt-Herentals, Dessel-Schoten and Dessel-Kwaadmechelen come together. Because of this special feature, it was decided to place a watchtower at this intersection of canals.

The Sas4 Tower is 37 meters high and offers a beautiful view. In clear weather the visibility extends over many kilometers. The tower has 216 stairs and is easy to climb. Even if you are afraid of heights or have difficulty walking, there is no problem. In the visitor center you can watch images of the view on a TV screen, which gives an impression of what you can see from the top of the Sas4 Tower. But nothing can match the on-the-spot experience. So climbing the 216 steps is definitely worth it, and it also helps improve your fitness.
